Spyderco Para 3 - Black G-10 - Black Blade

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 blacked out version cloaks the plain edge blade in a non reflective Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) coating for a stealthy look, paired with black peel ply textured G-10 scales and matching black coated liners and hardware. 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. The lock holds the blade securely open in use and lets you close it easily and safely with one hand.

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.
