The FFG ZDP Delicas have been available for 2 or 3 years. If you order a Delica with ZDP and get a saber grind I'd bet the knife has been sitting on someone's shelf for quite some time. I may be wrong but I thought Spyderco stopped making the saber grind when they introduced the FFG blades. I had both and LOVE the FFG blade on Delicas.r small wrote:Is this availible?

Defnitely ask the dealer. The ones in my shop are saber-ground (also plain edge, combo edge, and spyderedge), but they've cut the line back (if I'm not mistaken) to just FFG plain edge.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

My regular store, Knife Center, in College Park, Md., seems to only carry the saber ground. But I've found some other stores on the web that carry the FFG in British Racing Green. So I should be able to get one. I have a Ladybug, Dragonfly, and Stretch in ZDP, so I need the Deli to fill the gap. ZDP cuts like a laser.

We are Spydertwins! Well, I don't actually have the ladybug yet, but I did just gift one to my brother-in-law. I'll probably be along with a manbug sooner or later, but I think the Delica is my next one.r small wrote:My regular store, Knife Center, in College Park, Md., seems to only carry the saber ground.
