The Spyderco Para 3 Partially Serrated Black is a must-have for anyone looking for a high-performance, versatile folding knife that combines quality craftsmanship and American-made excellence. If you’re after a reliable, everyday carry knife, this one is a solid choice. With its impressive blend of sleek design and practical functionality, it’s built to stand up to any challenge you throw its way, whether it’s for work, outdoors, or daily tasks.
The heart of the Para 3 is its 2.93” CPM S45VN stainless steel blade, designed for durability and sharpness. The blade features a clip point shape, allowing for precision cuts and an easy transition between piercing and slicing tasks. The partially serrated edge gives you the best of both worlds, offering smooth, clean cuts alongside the ability to tackle tougher materials with ease. The satin finish adds a touch of elegance while enhancing the blade’s resistance to corrosion, making it a dependable companion for years to come.
One of Spyderco’s standout features is their signature round thumb hole. Located on the blade, this thumb hole enables a smooth, ambidextrous opening, letting you deploy the blade with a quick flick of your thumb. This simple yet effective design makes opening and closing the knife easier, even in the toughest conditions.
Spyderco’s compression lock is another key feature that makes the Para 3 stand out. This locking mechanism ensures that the blade stays securely in place when opened, providing extra safety during use. It’s an incredibly strong lock that’s easy to disengage with one hand, allowing you to quickly fold the blade back into place. Whether you're cutting rope, slicing through cardboard, or opening packages, you can count on the Para 3’s reliable lock to keep the blade in place until you're ready to close it.
The black G-10 handle is textured for a comfortable grip, ensuring that even in wet or slippery conditions, you’ll have full control of the knife. The material also adds durability and resistance to impact, so the knife holds up in a variety of environments. For added convenience, the handle is equipped with a four-position pocket clip, giving you flexibility in how you carry it. Whether you prefer tip-up, tip-down, left-hand, or right-hand carry, this knife adapts to your needs. The included lanyard hole also provides another option for carrying or securing the knife, whether you’re attaching it to your gear or personalizing it with a lanyard.
With a closed length of 4.29” and an overall length of 7.2”, the Para 3 is compact enough for everyday use, yet large enough to tackle more demanding tasks. Weighing just 3.4 oz., it won’t weigh you down during your day-to-day activities. Its .14” blade thickness provides a balance between strength and precision, making it a well-rounded tool for a variety of cutting chores.
