Dependable Efficiency: The Para 3 has its origins in the 2004 launch of the Para Military model. It maintains the established durability and sharp cutting capability, but features a more compact and user-friendly design for transport.
Superior Blade Steel: Spyderco is extremely proud to offer Maxamet in some of our elite American-made products. Maxamet is a remarkable alloy that possesses properties that transcend conventional high-speed tool steels.
Easy-to-Use Lock: Located in the spine of the handle, the Compression Lock's high-strength mechanism locks the blade securely open during use, yet allows it to be closed easily and safely with only one hand.
The New EDC: The Para 3 distills all the features of that best-in-class folding knife into a more compact, carry-friendly package. Ounce for once one of the most capable folding knives ever made, the Para 3 is destined to be a classic.
Pocket-Friendly: It features a lightweight, open-backed construction style and its Stainless Steel liners are nested into the textured G-10 scales. This reduces handle thickness and provides excellent support for the knife's Compression Lock.
