Ive seen many Red Endura1's and i thought i saw somewhere a Red Delica1 that i missed long time ago, actually i thought i saw a box that said Red Delica in the old black box the D1's came in. i could be mistaken so that is why im asking now. still to this day i have never seen one
I seem to recall a pic of a red and a yellow delica 1 on HAMONOICHIBA.They were made for the everest team though the reference I found said the blue delica 1 was made for the team.
We would rather be the knife in your pocket, because is "works" better, than the knife in your showcase, because it "looks" better.
According to SpydieWiki, there was never a Red Delica I, they made red on the Delica III and it was a trainer. There was however a Red Endura I in SE or PE.

wish i still had the picture of all these boxes of Spydercos for sale, could have sworn i saw a red delica black box with a yellow label, lettering was red too
If theyre out there riot I think we all know it will take some time getting ahold of one of these! that is if there are any...lol Good luck with the search man! :cool:
And me personally...Ive never seen any Red delica 1's but Im farely new to spyderco...5 or 6 years in so they would have been long gone before I became familiar.

You said "Sorry, no Delicas."Then you said "But I've seen a red Delica in an old catalog, so at one time Spyderco made them."
Sorry, my fault.
I've a small collection of old Spyderco catalogs.
One of them is a german catalog from the early nineties.
On the frontpage are Delicas and Enduras in different colours (red,pink, blue,green),
but the red one is an Endura, not a Delica.
Maybe I need new glasses ... :)
Spyderco did make a red Delica Trainer. They actually came out with two versions, one with a solid blade and a later version with holes in the blade (for weight purposes, I think), but neither of these was sharpened.
The Endura came out with red handled versions. I have seen both serrated and plain varieties, as well as the two Trainers that came out about the same time as the Delica Trainers.
I've never see a red Delica 1. It is not mentioned on Spydiewiki, and not noted in any of the catalogs or price sheets I've looked through. Of course none of that rules out there having been one for the Japanese market, but it's unlikely one of those would have come in a box with English labeling.
