{"product_id":"spyderco-para®-3-c223gpbk","title":"SPYDERCO Para® 3  C223GPBK","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-block\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rte\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Para® 3 takes all the proven features and benefits of Spyderco’s best-selling Para Military® 2 and distills them into an even more compact all-purpose cutting tool. Its three-inch blade is precision machined from premium CPM® S45VN™ stainless steel and features a full-flat grind for a superior balance of strength, point utility, and low-friction cutting performance. It includes a textured index-finger choil and thumb ramp that provide a solid purchase for a forward-positioned grip, offering enhanced control during precise cutting tasks. The blade’s signature Trademark Round Hole™ proudly brands it as a member of the Spyderco family and is fully accessible to allow quick, positive, one-handed opening with either hand. To keep the Para 3 slim and pocket friendly, it features a lightweight, open-backed construction style and its stainless steel liners are nested into machined recesses in the peel-ply-textured G-10 scales. This provides excellent structural support for the knife’s Compression Lock® mechanism, which locks the blade securely open during use while allowing it to be closed easily and safely with only one hand. A four-position hourglass clip and an oversized lined lanyard hole complete the design, offering ambidextrous tip-up or tip-down carry and allowing the easy attachment of fobs and lanyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Para 3 with CPM S45VN blade steel is available in several different variations. The basic model features black G-10 scales, a tumbled blade finish, brightly finished handle hardware, and a choice of PlainEdge™, CombinationEdge™, and SpyderEdge™ formats. With a tumble-finished PlainEdge blade, it is also available with digital camouflage peel-ply-texture G-10 handle scales. For those who prefer the look of a black blade, we offer the Para 3 with a PlainEdge blade cloaked in a non-reflective Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating and a choice of black or digital camouflage G-10 scales. Both black-bladed versions also feature matching black-coated liners and handle hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-block\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"techspecs\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"variant-info\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tech-specs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-box\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e7.2in 183mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosed Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e4.29in 109mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e.145in 3.7mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTip Carry Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e4-Position\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSheath:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eN\/A\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-box\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e2.93in 74mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e2.62in 67mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eG-10\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLock Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eCompression\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eUnited States\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-box\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eCPM® S45VN®\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnife Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e3.4oz 96g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClip Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAmbi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrind:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFull-Flat\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"DEFCON 1 GEAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53998898839827,"sku":null,"price":215.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/1998\/4659\/files\/spyderco-para-3-c223gpbk-3890345.jpg?v=1775065777","url":"https:\/\/defcon1gear.com\/products\/spyderco-para%c2%ae-3-c223gpbk","provider":"DEFCON 1 GEAR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
