Not Sure which knife to get...

[JDixon]

Hi there, first off i currently own a ATS-55 which is a very nice nice but as i work with it daily im starting to realize the Eagle Claw type blade is not what i needed (plus its chipped and a little dull now).. Anyways i was looking at 2 new knives and cant make up my mind on which one to get, the 2 choices are the Delica AUS-6 S/S SpyderEdge or the Calypso Jr. AUS-8 S/S SpyerEdge, any comments on either of these 2 knives would help me out greatly and thanks for the help..



PS What is the Warranty on Spyderco knives? How many years?

Both very good knives, I personally favor the Delica just for looks and the feel in my
hand, but the Calypso is great too.
My EDC is a Native FRN. It's lightweight, feels good in any pocket, and is tough as nails, but so are the other two, if it were me, the Delica.

Our warranty is Lifetime against manufactures defects. Don't pry or use your knife as a screwdriver and you are pretty much OK. We inclose a statement with our warranty in the box of every Spyderco we sell.

I like the Delica because it carries tip up.

Hi JDixon. Welcome to the Spyderco forum.

I would consider the Delica (tip up) or the Calypso jr (tip down) FRN handle in VG-10.

JDixon, I would get the Calypso Jr. Ltwt. because of the VG-10 steel and the flat grind. But the Delica is also good choice. But then again, all Spydies are awesome so it makes choosing one hard.

In the land of knives, Spyderco is king.

Go for the Calypso Jr. dude!

If you do decide to go with a Delica, check out JohnFJensen.com for a model that has pink handles. I think he's asking $38.00 for them. Good luck!
