Re: Show your Delica's
Here's mine (soon to be joined by HAP-40 Burnt Orange one)
Would love some info on the two older ones, only thing i know is they are both early 90's ones, but they are different in blade stamp and pocket clip:

Re:
About time for another look at the Delica collection of Riot.
To put things in to perspective
This photo taken back in was taken back in 2010.
I would love to know if this collection is still intact or hopefully grown even larger.
On page 21 :spyder:

Re: Re:
In between jobs I could not keep up with the new delicas coming out so fast, ended up selling everything except my CF Delicas, sad because it was alot of work and $$$ to get where I got. Proud of how far it went but would never try it again, it was a brutal task, good luck to you and your collection, think maybe you and someone else have the biggest now.
Hello everyone.

Hello everyone.
The thing that started me on Delicas, was Australian import restrictions. Delicas were the largest Spyderco knife you could import without the risk of them being taken by the Australian Customs service.
I will stay away from the custom Delicas, but I think the collection will slowly grow. It will not get as complete as your collection was; they just getting to hard to find. :o And when they do appear, their prices are usually way out of my budget.

I didn't force this patina but an apple a day turned it almost black.
