Spyderco Delica 4 FFG – A Gear Review

Spyderco Delica 4 FFG

Spyderco Delica 4 FFG

The Spyderco Delica 4 FFG is an awesome piece of resin and steel, and wholly deserving of a Gear Review!

The Delica 4 is essentially a smaller version of the excellent Spyderco Endura 4, of which I am an unabashed fan! The Delica’s blade shape differs a little bit from the Endura’s, but if you are familiar with the Endura the Delica will seem like an old friend.

The Full Flat Ground version is a special edition of the Spyderco Delica 4. Spyderco has taken the regular Delica 4 and added a full flat grind on the blade and offers it in a variety of colors.

Spyderco Delica 4 FFG Spec’s

    • 7.125-inch open length
    • 4.25-inch closed length
    • 2.875-inch VG-10 steel blade
    • 2.56-inch cutting edge
    • 0.5-inch blade hole
    • 0.09-inch blade thickness
    • 2.5-ounce weight
    • FRN handle material

Spyderco Delica 4 FFG Pro’s

  • The Delica 4 FFG is extremely light weight and rides easily in a pocket.
  • The bi-directional texturing on the handle provides an excellent hold while retaining a comfortable grip.
  • VG-10 is a premium steel that is easy to sharpen yet has good edge retention.
  • The Full Flat Grind makes this thing cut like a scalpel. It comes SCARY SHARP.

Spyderco Delica 4 FFG Con’s

  • I hate to say none but this thing is Damn Near Perfect!
  • As awesome as it is the Spyderco Delica 4 FFG has a very fragile tip. Do Not Pry With It EVER!!!

the Verdict

I love the Spyderco Delica 4 FFG with all my heart! I hate to gush this much over a piece of resin and steel but Spyderco really hit one out of the park with this one. I love the Endura but the smaller size of the Delica makes it just that much more handy and useful. The Delica excels at all the EDC tasks that I could ask it to perform and it’s smaller size guarantees that it will be there in your pocket when you need it! 5/5 Stars!!!
