Spyderco (C223PNBL) Para 3 Lightweight Exclusive Stone Blue Knife

We would like to introduce you to our sixth Spyderco exclusive: The Stone Blue Lightweight Para3 with CPM 20CV Steel. The blade of this elite knife is precision machined from CPM® 20CV—an extremely wear resistant, powder metallurgy stainless steel. This remarkable blade material is unique in that it contains a large volume of vanadium carbides and the highest amount of chromium of any vanadium-rich stainless steel currently available. This advanced alloy composition provides a superior combination of wear resistance, corrosion resistance, impact toughness, and polishability. These properties are amplified by the powder metallurgy process, which ensures a very fine grain size and uniform distribution of the alloys throughout the steel. Injection molded from tough fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN), the handle of this elite Para 3 Lightweight is a distinctive “stone blue” color and features Spyderco’s signature Bi-Directional Texture™ pattern for a secure, non-slip grip. It also houses a streamlined version of our patented Compression Lock® mechanism, which offers both strength and safe, convenient, one-handed operation. To balance discreet carry with ease of access, the handle also features a reversible deep-pocket wire pocket clip. Thank you for the support. We hope you enjoy!
