Looks slick! The silver clip is my preferred look for the Delica.

Dang! Another Delica I really don't need but won't be able to live without.

That one will be hard to resist. They are calling that dark gray but does that look blue to anyone else?

Sweet looking Delica. I passed on the M390 but I think I can't pass on this one.

Wow. As great as this is, I'll probably pass and hope for a future Police 4 lw exclusive in Cru-Wear though.

I fully expected this to be a "wish/want" thread based on the title. I'm shocked this is real! Who else is up for a full run of Seki Cruwear Sprints??? I'm salivating at a Cruwear Dragonfly!

Great job on using the polished clip as well. The black Delica clips get banged up too easily.

That's how I feel with my positron. The grip is so far back that it feels awkward to hold the knife with my thumb forward and my fingers back.

Comparing to the other non-stainless PM tool steel option for the Delica, HAP40 - CPM CruWear will be a little tougher and a little less wear resistant, is that right? Basically more along the lines of 3V than M4? (assuming comparable hardness... I know there have been a couple questions about the hardness of the HAP40 models, which is difficult to measure with the softer stainless cladding)

Asking because I've been pretty happy with my HAP40 Delica performance-wise... aesthetically I like the mono-metal blade and dark blue/gray of this better than the clad blade and burnt orange of the HAP40 but not clear that I would functionally prefer the CruWear model.
