Introducing Spyderco's 2024 addition to the Para 3 family. This Para 3 is a member of the Spyderco Salt line-up featuring a 2.93-inch drop point blade, 0.145 inches thick, in DLC coated CPM MagnaCut stainless steel and a black G10 handle, 4.29-inches long. This model boasts all of the well-known features of the Para 3 including the finger choil, jimping, 4-way reversible clip, compression lock, and lanyard hole while integrating the Salt Series corrosion resistant design. Weighing in at 3.4 ounces, this Para 3 Salt knife is perfect for every day carry in any condition, especially sea-side. Made in the USA.
From Spyderco: Following in the footsteps of its groundbreaking bigger brother, the Para Military 2 Salt, this remarkable expression of the Para 3 boasts a full-flat-ground blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut - a state-of-the-art particle metallurgy steel that offers an exceptional balance of edge retention, toughness, and superior corrosion resistance. The PlainEdge blade is cloaked in a non-reflective Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating and paired with a handle featuring peel-ply-textured black G-10 scales machined with our distinctive Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture pattern. To complement its blade steel and low-profile finish, the knife's nested stainless steel liners, four-position pocket clip, and all other hardware are also crafted from marine-grade materials and feature matching black coatings.
