Had never given much thought to this before. I seemed to have found the perfect EDC with my Standard SE. Problem is that everytime I close it, I have to flip it end-for-end to clip into my pocket. Other than the Wegner Jr., is there another Spyderco of this size that is tip-up carry and rides low into my jeans pocket?
I believe that the Delica is just a tad bigger than the Standard and is also set up for tip up carry. Check out the pic...<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Jerry, the Rookie's almost identical to the Standard and is tip-up.

Or you could ask Ron to fix your Standard for tip up carry <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>
OTOH, the Delica is the perfect choice. Not to mention that the FRN model has that VG-10 blade and it's so lightweight you won't even feel you're carrying it... <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

I'm partial to the Native in that size. You may also want to look at the Pro-grip. RKBA!
The Rookie indeed.
I posted these picture sometime ago for comparison.
I have a PE doing nothing, shoot me an e-mail if you're interested.

Thanks for all the input. Ted, thanks for the offer on the Rookie. I'm going to take Alex's advice and try a new generation Delica in PS. Have never owned a non-G10/Micarta knife before and need to try one.
Thought about a CF Delica, but then I probably would want to shelve it and I need a working knife.
