It seems that all pax are in Economy Light, meaning that nobody has a checked baggage allowance for any of these flights (the OP appears to have status so he has 1 bag for all sectors).
I don't think the OP's idea of upgrading just INV-AMS will grant a checked baggage allowance also for AMS-ATL-SFO on Delta; certainly if it's a day-of-departure/OLCI offee upgrade I don't think it will work. And a "proper" upgrade in advance of just INV-AMS is likely to be obscenely expensive.
To the OP: have you tried buying the luggage on the Delta website?
Apologies for late reply to earlier message but Irish guy has the situation assumed correctly.
Actually going on the Delta website, it says I have two free pieces of luggage allowed for their sections but the KLM one (which is obviously the first one) allowance is only one.
Probably will manage with only one suitcase between us but we are away to do a motorcycling trip in the Rockies so concern was all our gear would exceed the weight limit for one suitcase.
I think we will certainly be using the maximum weight allowed for our hand carried luggage.
