Good trade ?

#1

Post by JEFF B »

I just traded a Benchmade 755 MPR for a Spyderco Spyderhawk pe,and an older stainless Delica pe in mint condition. Sound like a decent deal ? The delica has phillips screws for the clip,not torx,that does make it an older one right ?

Dont make that Delica2 a user, though. Otherwise that would ruin the whole "Mint" condition of it. Would love to see pics though.

I would gladly post a pic,but i'm for the most part computer challenged. Is a stainless delica rare ? My idea of mint might be different than others. Its got the typical surface scratches on the handle from sliding in and out of your pocket that those handles get. No blade scratches,or chips,or any play in any direction. Not NIB though.

Stainless Delicas, in general, aren't rare. I've found a site or two that still lists D2s, new, for around $65. The current D4 is everywhere.

The older Delicas have a different blade profile than the current D4, especially the tip. It's much pointier than the D4.
