Para™ 3 Knife
A compact all-purpose cutting tool
The three-inch blade of the Para 3 is precision machined from premium 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 keep the Para 3 slim and pocket friendly, it features a lightweight, open-backed construction style and its stainless steel liners are nested into machined recesses in the textured G-10 scales. This reduces the handle thickness and provides excellent structural support for the knife’s patented Compression Lock®. Located in the spine of the handle, this high-strength mechanism locks the blade securely open during use, yet allows it to be closed easily and safely with only one hand.
A four-position hourglass clip and an oversized lined lanyard hole complete the design, offering ambidextrous tip-up or tip-down carry and allowing the easy attachment of fobs and lanyards.

Best knife yet
Although the appearance may be grotesque, it's a really functional knife. The bearing is in a class of its own and was sharp right out of the box. And this is not too big for every day pocket carry.

Vaikka ulkonäkö voi olla groteski niin todella toimiva veitsi. Laakerointi on omaa luokkaansa ja oli terävä heti laatikosta. Eikä tämä ole liian iso joka päivä taskuun.

Simply the best
What can I say about this knife that has not already been said? It,s a perfect size for edc, the handle is big enough to use with or without the fingerchoil, the blade can slice all day and keep coming back for more. The s45vn steel holds a great edge, at least for my use ( I don't use my folders for chopping down trees). I have not had the need to sharpen it yet, but I find it easy to maintain a sharp edge just be stropping regularly. The only thing I don’t like is the clip. Shiny and big, but that was no problem replacing. And of course the blade was perfectly centered, drops shut and no blade play. Long story short, just click the buy button!!

Hyvä avausmekanismi ja kahva miellyttävä kädessä.
Spyderco
Spyderco introduced their first folding knife in 1981 and pioneered the concept of a round hole in the blade and the pocket clip. Since then they have redefined the modern folding knife and become an EDC favourite for lot of users.
