Product Description
The Spyderco Delica 4 C11PSBBK is the all-black combo edge Delica 4 — VG-10 Japanese stainless in a 2.875-inch combo edge blade with a plain edge section near the tip and serrations at the heel, Black FRN handle, and back lock, delivering the Delica 4's decades-refined compact carry performance in the most tactically configured and carry-neutral Black FRN build with the edge versatility that plain edge alone cannot provide, at $110.
The VG-10 blade is a Japanese stainless steel developed by Takefu Special Steel specifically for cutlery applications — a high-carbon, high-chromium stainless with cobalt addition that produces a well-balanced combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance that significantly outperforms conventional budget stainless steels. In the combo edge configuration, VG-10 delivers its well-balanced steel performance across two edge geometries in a single compact blade — the plain edge section near the tip handles precise slicing and detail cutting where smooth controlled cuts matter, while the serrated heel handles rope, cordage, packaging straps, and fibrous materials faster in push-cutting applications where serrations outperform plain edge. The combo edge specification is the key functional distinction of the C11PSBBK over the plain edge Delica 4 variants — a single blade that handles both the slicing tasks that plain edge excels at and the rope and cordage cutting that serrations handle faster, without requiring two separate knives. The Black FRN handle completes the all-black low-profile build — the most carry-neutral Delica 4 colorway, carrying without visual signature in any pocket, gear bag, or professional carry context, paired with the VG-10 blade's satin finish to create a two-tone satin-over-black build that carries with complete visual neutrality. At $10 more than the plain edge Delica 4 variants, the C11PSBBK's combo edge premium is the right specification for buyers whose daily cutting tasks regularly include both slicing and rope or cordage cutting.
- Blade: VG-10 stainless, drop point profile, satin finish, combo edge — plain edge section near tip for precise slicing and detail cutting; serrated heel for rope, cordage, and fibrous material cutting faster than plain edge in push-cutting applications; VG-10's well-balanced steel performance across both edge geometries
- Handle: Black FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), textured bidirectional grip, compact Delica 4 profile — chemically inert and lightweight; Black is the most carry-neutral Delica 4 colorway; carries without visual signature in any carry context
