python3 venv pip version conflict

I have a PyCharm python 3.7.1 project on Windows 10. In the project venv\Scripts folder is pip.exe, pip3.exe, etc. If I list pip's version while standing in that folder I get:

me@my-machine MINGW64 ~/PycharmProjects/myProject/venv/Scripts (develop)
$ ./pip --version
pip 10.0.1 from c:\users\me\pycharmprojects\myProject\venv\lib\site-packages\pip-10.0.1-py3.7.egg\pip (python 3.7)

me@my-machine MINGW64 ~/PycharmProjects/myProject/venv/Scripts (develop)
$ ./python --version
Python 3.7.1

me@my-machine MINGW64 ~/PycharmProjects/myProject/venv/Scripts (develop)
$ ./python -m pip --version
pip 18.1 from C:\Users\me\PycharmProjects\myProject\venv\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.7)

I seem to have a version mismatch. Can I safely delete the pip-10.0.1-py3.7.egg folder? Do I need to do anything else?

You shouldn't delete any files in your site-packages folder. Besides the two pip executables you tested are different. The one loaded with python -m pip will most probably point to the pip3 binary and not the pip one.
