Spyderco C223PBBK Para 3 Lightweight 2.92 Fold Plain Black DLC CTS BD1N SS Blade/Black Textured FRN Handle Includes Pocket Clip, Knife

Overview

The Spyderco Para 3 Lightweight distills the key qualities of the Para Military 2 into an ultra-compact, carry-friendly folding knife. Featuring a stealthy black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating on its full-flat-ground PlainEdge blade, this model is crafted from CTS BD1N—a nitrogen-enriched high-carbon chromium steel offering a superior balance of hardness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Nearly 30 percent lighter than G-10 counterparts, the lightweight handle utilizes injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) scales with a high-traction Bi-Directional Texture pattern and a linerless, open-backed construction. A streamlined version of Spyderco's signature Compression Lock mechanism is supported by a stainless steel lock bar inset into the handle's interior. The blade includes a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole for quick, one-handed opening with either hand. Hardware, screws, and the reversible deep-pocket wire clip feature a non-reflective black coating, providing discreet left or right-side tip-up carry. A generously sized lanyard hole allows for the easy attachment of fobs or lanyards.
