Why change something if it works? Because, at Spyderco, we practice the principle of C.Q.I. – Constant Quality Improvement. If we can refine and improve the ergonomics or cutting performance of an established model, we do it.
Our Para-Military2 has several changes over the classic version. The G-10 handle is narrowed at the end improving the ergonomics. The handle and blade have been profiled thinner; removing uncomfortable angles when in the closed position. It features a Compression Lock and an ambidextrous-friendly four way clip which carries tip-up/tip-down, left/right-hand, and rests deeper in the pocket. This Paramilitary2 exclusive run features a Crucible, inc. powdered technology CPM-S35VN steel blade that is ground full-flat with a thin edge for optimal cutting performance — and it WILL shave hair off your arm right out of the box. CPM-S35VN is structured similar to CPM-S30V but with the addition of niobium (columbium) carbides along with vanadium and chromium carbides. Niobium makes the steel tougher while enhancing resistance to wear and chipping and improves edge retention over basic smelted high-chromium steels.
Paired with brown G-10 handle scales, this model offers fine-tuned handling ergonomics and an over-sized piped lanyard hole. The knife comes with Spyderco’s patented Compression Lock and a four-way, hour-glass pocket clip allowing the folder to carry tip-up or tip-down, and be adjusted for left- or right-handed use. This knife is made right here in the USA in Golden, Colorado.
The overall length is 8 1/4″, blade length is 3 1/2″, blade steel is CPM S35VN, closed length is 4 13/16″, cutting edge is just a hair over 3″, weight is 3.8 ounces, blade thickness is 1/8″, and handle material is G-10. This knife is made in Golden, Colorado, USA!
