This Para 3 Lightweight has the new, long-awaited CPM-SPY27 blade and a cobalt blue lightweight FRN handle.
In close cooperation with Crucible® Industries, Spyderco developed CPM SPY27, a particle metallurgy stainless steel containing a proprietary mix of alloys, including vanadium, molybdenum, niobium, nitrogen, and cobalt. This remarkable composition, enhanced by the amplifying effects of cobalt and the state-of-the-art Crucible Particle Metallurgy process, is produced exclusively for Spyderco.
This supercharged version of the popular Para 3 Lightweight enhances all the proven features of the standard version with its high-performance CPM SPY27 blade.
The Para 3 Lightweight takes the concept of the original Para 3 to a whole new level. As the original was a smaller, lighter version of the popular Paramilitary 2, this model is even lighter. The handle is made from textured injection-molded FRN and is set for ambidextrous tip-up carry.
The Para 3 Lightweight was awarded Most Innovative American Design at Blade Show 2019.
Features:
- CPM-SPY27 steel has incredible edge retention and corrosion resistance.

- Ambidextrous wire clip for left or right side carry.
