Spyderco Delica 4 CPM SPY27

Delica Icon meets Exclusive SPY27 Steel

The Delica has been around since the early 90s and is pretty much the definition of a Spyderco folding knife: lightweight, slim, reliable – and for many enthusiasts, their very first “serious” EDC. With the fourth generation, Spyderco refined the design to perfection: FRN handle scales with bi-directional texturing for secure grip, the classic back lock, and of course the famous round Spydie hole for one-handed opening.

What makes this version stand out is the steel: CPM SPY27. This isn’t just another off-the-shelf formula – it’s a true Spyderco original. Developed together with Crucible, SPY27 blends cobalt, vanadium, niobium, and molybdenum into a powder metallurgy steel that redefines the balance of sharpness, toughness, and corrosion resistance.

  • Holds an edge longer than traditional VG-10 blades
  • More robust and less prone to chipping
  • Easy to maintain in everyday use

The Delica 4 in SPY27 is not only a piece of knife history but also a statement: Spyderco loves to do things their own way, with plenty of nerdy passion – and you can feel that the moment you hold it.

Warning / Safety Notice:

Risk of cuts: The most common hazard when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can easily penetrate skin and tissue.

Blade slippage: Improper handling or applying excessive force may cause the knife to slip, leading to uncontrolled movements and potential injury.

Injuries from falling knives: Knives should never be left unsecured or placed near the edge of tables or work surfaces, as they may fall and cause injury.

Dull blades: Dull knives pose a higher risk of injury, as they require more force and are more likely to slip. Knives should therefore be sharpened regularly and properly.

Improper use: Using a knife for purposes other than its intended use (e.g. as a prying tool) can damage the blade and may result in accidents.
