The Para 3 from Spyderco stands as a testament to the perfect balance between size and performance, making it an ideal choice for those who demand excellence in their cutting tools. Compact yet robust, this best-selling knife offers a legally permissible blade length without compromising on its full-service cutting capabilities.
What sets this iteration apart is the inclusion of Spyderco's proprietary CPM SPY27 stainless steel. Building upon the trusted VG-10 formula, SPY27 elevates its composition by increasing carbon, molybdenum, and vanadium content while introducing niobium and nitrogen into the mix. This advanced alloy blend undergoes Crucible Industries' state-of-the-art particle metallurgy process to ensure uniform distribution across the steel's microstructure—resulting in unparalleled strength and performance.
Aesthetically distinct with its cobalt blue peel-ply-textured G-10 handle scales, this knife not only performs at elite levels but also carries a unique visual identity that marks it as part of Spyderco’s prestigious SPY27 family.
For users seeking a reliable companion that excels both in form and function, the Para 3 delivers with precision engineering backed by innovative materials science—a true embodiment of cutting-edge craftsmanship.
