benchmade mini grip vs delica 4

I like both. I can get the delica 4 for 60 and the mini grip for 85-90. Is the mini grip worth the extra?
What's the difference between vg10 and 154cm? I saw a cabelas version of the mini grip with d2 steel for 95.
I'm replacing a Kershaw leek.
Also, if you have any place I can get either cheaper, that would be great if you could share. Tia
Any delica owners care to share their experience and enlighten me if they can close 1 handed with the rear lock?

Very little in terms of practical EDC use.

$10 more for a steel that isn't as suitable as 154CM for pocket knives.

Thank God.
Outside of blade steels it's a matter of ergonomics. I really like Benchmade's Axis system. Does need more attention than the simple lockback of the Spyderco. Spyderco will be thinner, lighter, and the thin grind profile of the VG10 blade will allow it to take an extremely fine edge if you wanted it to. I keep looking over Mini Grips but they are not as good a value as they were when they were $50 - $60 and 440C.
My current pocket knife is a $250 Microtech Ultratech S/E with an Elmax steel blade. Not terribly practical but more fun...

Go Delica or better yet endura.

I carry a flat ground Endura and it is by far my favorite of any knife I have ever owned. Easy to open and close with one hand. Holds a super sharp edge that's easy to touch up on a Spyderco sharpener. I'm sure that some of the higher priced knives might even be more impressive, but for an EDC, I'll stick with the Endura until further notice.

Spyderco all the way better knife and benchmade is against our 2nd amendment

Loving my mini grip with the M4 blade.

The stud on Benchmade knives has always worn a hole in my jeans
