Inspired by a request from one of our hard-working end-line users, the Delica 4 Lightweight Wharncliffe is a uniquely functional variation of one of Spyderco’s most popular and enduring designs. The defining feature of this knife is its "Wharncliffe" blade profile, which is characterized by a perfectly straight cutting edge and a spine that tapers to meet that edge at an acute point. Capable of cutting with both scalpel-like precision and power far beyond its size, Wharncliffes are the blades of choice for many savvy knife users who demand maximum performance out of their tools. Available in either a PlainEdge™ or fully serrated SpyderEdge™ format, the Delica Wharncliffe features a full-flat-ground VG-10 stainless steel blade with a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole™ that supports one-hand opening with either hand. It is paired with the time-tested Delica Lightweight handle design, which includes a sturdy back lock mechanism, skeletonized stainless steel liners, and a four-position pocket clip that allows both left and right-side tip-up or tip-down carry. One of the most potent pocket-sized cutting tools available, the Delica Lightweight Wharncliffe pushes the performance of this popular model to a new level.

Such a unique blade shape

Not sure why wharncliffe blades don’t get the love they deserve. Such a classic design the Delica is but Wharncliffe blade? It can’t get better.

I didn’t have any issues with using this for food prep like what I’ve heard online. To be honest, I don’t find a huge difference for EDC tasks compared to the delica’s regular drop point blade shape. Love this blade.

Wharncliffe

Bought this knife to replace my Olfa x-acto at work. Of course this one needs to be resharpened, but the footprint is incredibly less than mega retractable Olfa. Really amazed by the fact that it's only 66g even with inner steel liners. My Native 5 is a bit heavier, similar size, with only FRN frame. Smooth rotation, smooth back lock, no blade play.
