Spyderco Delica 4 FRN Black Folding Knife 2.9in Partially Serrated Blade SP11PSBK

The Spyderco Delica 4 Folding Knife stands as a benchmark in the world of everyday carry blades. First introduced in 1990, the Delica helped revolutionize modern folding knife design, offering lightweight construction, a secure pocket clip, and one-handed operation long before those features became standard. Alongside its larger sibling, the Endura, the Delica was instrumental in proving the durability and reliability of fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) as a handle material.

The Delica 4 continues that legacy with thoughtful upgrades driven by Spyderco's CQI—Constant Quality Improvement—philosophy. Its 2.9-inch VG-10 stainless steel blade is precision ground with a satin finish and a drop point profile, delivering a sharp, versatile edge suited for a wide range of tasks. The blade deploys easily using Spyderco’s iconic round thumb hole, offering reliable one-handed opening without relying on springs or assisted mechanisms.

This manual folder features a sturdy lockback mechanism for safe use under pressure. The handle is built from lightweight black FRN and features Bi-Directional Texturing, offering a solid grip whether your hands are wet, gloved, or bare. At just 2.6 ounces and 4.25 inches closed, it carries with ease in the pocket, pack, or on a belt, thanks to a four-position stainless steel pocket clip that supports tip-up or tip-down carry on either side.

Internally, the Delica 4 is strengthened by dual skeletonized stainless steel liners. These provide rigidity without adding unnecessary weight and serve as the structural backbone of the knife. The screw-together construction allows for straightforward maintenance, easy cleaning, and the ability to fine-tune components if needed. From refined ergonomics to premium blade steel and field-tested build quality, every detail of the Delica 4 reflects Spyderco’s commitment to functional design and everyday reliability.

Whether you’re an outdoorsman, tradesman, or everyday carrier, the Delica 4 delivers dependable cutting performance in a lightweight and rugged form.
