Para 3 – Compact Power, Refined Design
The Para 3 takes everything you love about Spyderco’s legendary Paramilitary 2 and wraps it in a pocket‑friendly 3” package. This cobalt blue G‑10 version with CPM‑SPY27 blade steel brings premium materials and premium performance to a carry you’ll actually use every day.
Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply
This knife hits the sweet spot for me—great ergos, rock‑solid Compression Lock, and that snap of the SPY27 steel. The blue handle stands out yet stays professional. A perfect daily companion.
Performance Worthy of Its Name
- Edge Tech – The 2.95” CPM‑SPY27 blade holds its edge longer and resists corrosion better than standard S30V, thanks to Spyderco’s custom particle‑metallurgy steel .
- Pocket‑Ready – At 4.29” closed and overall 7.24”, the Para 3 stays legal and discreet .
- Balanced Weight – A solid 3.4 oz, thanks to steel liners nested inside the textured G‑10 scales .
Everyday Features, Exceptional Care
- Compression Lock – Ambidextrous, safe, and leaves your fingers clear of the blade.
- 4‑Position Clip – Tip‑up or tip‑down, left or right—carry it your way.
- Spyderco Round Hole – Classic one‑hand opening that never gets old.
- Lanyard Hole – Add a bead, flip it open, or just make it easier to grab.
