Further manufacturer information:
The Para 3 takes over all the proven qualities and advantages of Spyderco's most sought-after Para Military 2 and concentrates them into an even more compact, universal cutting tool. Its 7.5 cm blade is made of precision-machined premium CPM-S30V powder metallurgy stainless steel, with a straight edge grind, offering outstanding toughness, a strong tip and low-friction cutting performance. It includes a textured index finger groove and thumb ramp, which provide a firm grip and enhanced control during precise cutting tasks. The Round Hole opening hole, which also serves as a trademark, proudly signals the knife's Spyderco origin and quickly and positively supports one-handed use with either hand.
To keep the Para 3 thin and pocket-friendly, lightweight open-back stainless steel liners are embedded in the machined recesses of the G-10 panels. This reduces handle thickness and provides excellent structural support for the knife's patented compression lock. This high-strength mechanism in the spine of the handle holds the blade securely in place during use while allowing simple and safe one-handed closing. The four-position hourglass-shaped pocket clip and the oversized, padded lanyard hole complete the design, offering two-sided tip-up or tip-down carry and making it easy to attach a cord or strap.
One of the most successful pocket knives ever made, the Para 3 was intended to be a classic.
