In 1990 Spyderco shook things up by introducing two knives, the Delica and Endura.
First of their kind on the market, both folders opened up the knife market to
lightweight performance, one-hand open pocketknives that just about everyone
could afford. The fiberglass reinforced nylon handles come molded with Bi-Directional
Texturing® for preferred traction and improved ergonomics. Inside the handle
dual skeletonized stainless steel liners make the knife stronger without adding
weight and make an anchor for all external and internal components to attach
through adding sturdiness and rigidity. Their VG-10 blades are flat saber-ground
with a stronger tip and larger 13mm opening hole. Added to the blade’s spine
is slip resistant jimping. Phosphor bronze bushings smooth out the open/close
action.
The clip is upgraded to
a four-way tip-up, tip-down, left- or right-handed clip.
