Spyderco Para 3 - Partially Serrated

The Spyderco Para 3 takes all the proven features of Spyderco's best selling Paramilitary 2 and distills them into an even more compact, all purpose cutting tool. The three inch blade is machined from premium CPM S45VN stainless steel with a full flat grind, striking a superior balance of strength, point utility, and low friction cutting performance. A textured index finger choil and thumb ramp give you a solid, forward positioned grip for enhanced control during precise cutting tasks, while the signature Trademark Round Hole allows quick, positive, one handed opening with either hand.

This version features black peel ply textured G-10 scales, a tumbled blade finish, and brightly finished handle hardware. Its partially serrated blade blends a plain forward section with serrations toward the rear, giving you the best of both worlds for slicing through tough, fibrous materials like rope and webbing while still keeping a clean plain edge for everyday cutting. To keep it slim and pocket friendly, the Para 3 uses a lightweight open backed construction with stainless steel liners nested into the G-10 scales, providing a solid foundation for the reliable Compression Lock.

A four position hourglass clip offers ambidextrous tip up or tip down carry, and an oversized lined lanyard hole rounds out the design for easy attachment of fobs and lanyards.
