Hey Spydico fans
was at my LGS today looking at the Spydico boxes favorite being the Delica and I noticed the majority of the boxes had made in china written on them
WHATS UP WITH THAT??????

My Delica is stamped Seki City Japan.
Maybe Spyderco switched makers.

The regular Spyderco lineup does have some Chinese-made models, like the Efficient. I suspect these boxes may be to those.

I suspect that someone mixed up the boxes. There are a handful of regular-line Spyderco models that are made in China and specifically budget-minded models costing around $50-60; but the Delica is still made in Japan.

The Tenacious is made in China but it is a nice carry….

This is always in my pocket since I recently got it. But it was mis-handling different knife that gave me the bloody finger.
