For many users, the best-selling Para 3 represents the perfect balance of compact size, light weight, legally permissible blade length, and full-service cutting performance. To raise the bar even further, this remarkable knife is now available with a blade crafted from Spyderco’s proprietary CPM SPY27 stainless steel. Starting with the time-tested alloy formula of VG-10 stainless steel, SPY27 increases the volumes of carbon, molybdenum, and vanadium and adds niobium and nitrogen. Crucible Industries’ state-of-theart particle metallurgy manufacturing process then ensures a uniform distribution of these alloys throughout the steel for an extremely homogenous microstructure and maximum performance. To clearly identify this knife as a member of Spyderco’s elite SPY27 family, its handle features peel-ply-textured G-10 scales in a distinctive cobalt blue color.
This Para3 SPY27 is a reat EDC knife, action is breaking in nicely after a about a week of carry, and as always the service and shipping speed from National Knives is top notch. This knife is going to be nice and afordable to my daily EDC setup !! Also - Cobalt Blue scales are great.
