The Para 3 takes all the proven features and benefits of Spyderco's best-selling Paramilitary 2 and distills them into an even more compact all-purpose cutting tool. Its three-inch blade is precision machined from premium CPM-S45VN stainless steel and features a full-flat grind for a superior balance of strength, point utility, and low-friction cutting performance. It includes a textured index-finger choil and thumb ramp that provide a solid purchase for a forward grip and offer enhanced control during precise cutting tasks. The blade's signature Trademark Round Hole clearly brands it as a member of the Spyderco family and is fully accessible to allow quick, positive, one-handed opening with either hand.

To showcase this high-performance steel, Spyderco is producing limited edition Sprint Runs of a select number of their US-made models. Each CPM-S45VN knife will also feature distinctive forest green G10 scales and an exclusive CNC-machined Diamond Arc pattern that gives them a visually stunning non-slip texture.
