Should i pick up a Delica as well?
The Spyderco Trinity - the Dragonfly2, the Delica 4 and the Endura 4 Each one is as special as the others in its own way. In VG10 they are very good in ZDP-189 they are exceptional. If you carry those three knives you will have a bade appropriate for any task and never have to draw out a knife too big or intimidating for the job ant hand. I also had to buy the Dragonfly 2 in Leaf Green G10 scales simply because it is such a fine looking little knife for a dress situation.

Was reading about ZDP189 - heard it was hard to sharpen but holds an edge for ages (one reviewer had his edge for 1.5 years). Was thinking of getting ZDP189 first, but now unsure due to my research on reviews.

about the Dragonfly 2, don't tempt me!! haha, trying not to get too many knives (i know i won't even listen to myself and eventually cave in at some point)

I did exactly this but not all at once so I am only trying to help you save on the shipping. The Dragonfly 2 is an amazing little knife that has no idea that it is small. It is the first thing out of my pocket most of the time. It is such a cute looking little knife that no one has been intimidated by it.
I just recently got a Manix 2 backlock and it has taken over my front right pocket spot just because it is so nice and I use my Endura 4 as my primary kitchen food prep knife so I am using it all the time now.

Sure! How do some post such hi res pics? I always have to knock mine down about 50% in size and clarity before the forum accepts it.

Nice choice with knivesplus. Just learned about them yesterday, put in my first order today. On your delica, what is red and what is black? Is it dlc?

Delica, regrind, heat colored hardware, burgundy scales, acid washed blade. Maybe getting a deep carry clip for it. I plan on putting ironwood scales on it from g10.it

Haha! My girl wised up when she noticed knives in drawers where was there never knives before. One day she asked me why I took all my knives out of my knife box? I had to fess up and tell her my knife box was full and I'm using the desk to handle the overflow. :D
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

No DLC. The FRN is red and black. Not a standard Spyderco color, modified by Knives Plus. I am a sucker for red, eyeing a similar PM2 they have.
