Spyderco Para 3 Lightweight Features The Spyderco Para 3 Lightweight uses a streamlined Compression Lock mechanism a hallmark of Spyderco s engineering that provides strong lockup while remaining easy to operate one handed. The 2.93 inch blade is full-flat-ground from CTS BD1N stainless steel a modern steel chosen for its edge retention and corrosion resistance and finished with a black DLC coating for added durability and a low glare appearance. A plain edge gives the blade versatility across everyday cutting tasks from opening packages to food prep in the field. At just 4.29 inches closed and 2.40 oz in weight the knife disappears into a pocket without the bulk of larger folding knives. The handle is built from bright pink fiberglass-reinforced nylon a lightweight and durable material that also makes this edition instantly recognizable. Non-slip bi-directional texturing on the handle improves grip security during use even with wet or gloved hands. A reversible deep-pocket wire clip allows for tip-up carry on either the left or right side accommodating both right and left handed users. Spyderco donates a portion of the proceeds from this pink-handled knife to Living Beyond Breast Cancer giving the Para 3 Lightweight a charitable purpose alongside its proven everyday carry performance.
