Inspired by a request from one of Spyderco's customers who uses a Spyderco Delica 4 Lightweight pocketknife every day in his job, this variation features a flat-ground Wharncliffe-style blade crafted from VG10 stainless steel. The perfectly straight cutting edge of this knife blade profile provides the maximum transfer of cutting pressure—all the way to the tip—and provides an acute point that excels at detailed work. All other features of this workhorse knife design are consistent with the standard Spyderco Delica 4 Lightweight model.
An equal partner in the history-making accomplishments of the Endura, the Spyderco Delica 4 offers all the same outstanding qualities in a more compact package. The Spyderco Delica 4 Lightweight family includes a full range of handle colors, blade grinds, and edge configurations, as well as a blunted training version and a model with the Emerson Opening Feature. All lightweight models feature skeletonized stainless steel liners for strength and textured handles molded from tough fiberglass reinforced nylon.

Cons: Handle Feel, Handle Material
Love the blade. Hate the FRN scales
Mixed reaction to this knife. I really like the Wharncliff blade and its sharpness. A big disappointment in the FRN scales on this knife. The underside of scales are sharp. The handle feels unfinished with poor quality control overall. I hope I can return it.
There were two things missing from my Spyderco collection of edc's. A wharncliff blade and a Delica model. Now the Delica 4 with a wharncliff blade fits the bill. I'm very pleased with this knife. It fits my hand perfectly. This will gladly be placed in my edc rotation.
classic good quality with this Spyderco. Normally, I find the Delica a bit small, and prefer a 3+" blade. However, the Wharncliffe blade on this Delica make it one of my most favorite EDCs. Perfect for daily chores. Highly recommend you add this one to your collection.
