A faithful companion
Most major knife manufacturers have developed their classics over the years, which are simply indispensable from the program. Spyderco's Para Military 2 is one of them, along with several other models.
But for some, this folding knife is a bit too big for everyday use, especially since there is a legal regulation in some US states that only allows blades up to a length of 3 inches.
Spyderco have therefore put the PM2 on a diet and the result can now be admired in the form of the Para 3. Well, it's not quite that simple - after all, the Para 3 is much more than just a shrunken version of the classic.
Despite the significantly smaller dimensions, the Para 3 also feels absolutely fantastic in the hand, especially when you use the finger choil at the base of the blade. This indentation allows one to guide the knife very close to the cutting edge and thus be able to transfer a lot of force to the cutting motion.
The Compression Lock, which at first glance looks like a liner lock attached to the back, provides maximum security through its locking technology, which is due to the fact that here (unlike the liner lock) a part of the plate is pushed between the blade root and the stop pin. To destroy the lock, the vertically positioned liner would have to be crushed between the blade and the pin, which is virtually impossible.
Lightweight
Spyderco have added a popular model to their ultra-lightweight line with the Para-3-Lightweight. The already brilliant Para 3 has been put on a radical diet - with phenomenal results.
The new Lightweight version with the slightly rounded handle, is fantastic in the hand. With its sensational 70 grams, you can carry it in your pocket almost unnoticed. The handle scales in this version are made of the lightweight FRN plastic (Fiber Reinforced Nylon) that Spyderco has been using for a long time. This material is very robust and offers an extremely good grip. So you can work safely and precisely with the knife even with wet hands, without the threat of slipping the Para 3.
The CPM-SPY 27
Working closely with Crucible® Industries, Spyderco developed the CPM SPY27, a particle metallurgy stainless steel that contains a proprietary blend of alloys including vanadium, molybdenum, niobium, nitrogen and cobalt. This remarkable composition, enhanced by the reinforcing effect of cobalt and the state-of-the-art crucible particle metallurgy process, is made exclusively for Spyderco.
This pimped version of the popular Para 3 Lightweight improves on all the proven features of the standard version with its high performance CPM SPY27 blade.
Together with the large lanyard hole and the double-sided convertible Poketclip (the knife is thus also perfectly suitable for left-handers) you get with the Para 3 a really robust and yet handy pocket knife, which proves to be an absolutely faithful companion in everyday life.
