Custom Spyderco Para 3 Knife 3″ S45VN All Black Tactical Basket Weave Carbon Fiber “TacP”

This custom Spyderco Para 3 Knife 3″ has the premium CPM-S45VN Stainless Steel and all black tactical hardware (clip, screws, spacers) with beautiful Basket Weave Carbon Fiber Scales that we call “TacP”. Only 1 Available!

 Although clearly based on the Paramilitary 2, the Para 3 was not named the “Paramilitary 3” because its smaller size qualifies it as a different knife design. Similarly, the “3” in its name actually reflects its three-inch blade length rather than identifying it as a third-generation of the Paramilitary design. While its pedigree is unmistakable, the Para 3 (and its model and SKU number) has its own distinct “identity” as a Spyderco product.

With that said, the Para 3 does faithfully retain all the defining features of the best-selling Paramilitary 2, but in a smaller, even handier package. Its three-inch blade is precision machined from premium CPM-S45VN stainless steel and features a full-flat grind for superior edge geometry and low-friction cutting performance. Its oversized Trademark Round Hole proudly announces the knife’s pedigree and is easily accessible from either side to allow swift, ambidextrous, one-handed opening.

The lightweight, open-backed handle is built on a framework of stout stainless steel liners nested within textured carbon fiber scales. This refined construction style maximizes both structural strength and ergonomics while keeping the handle slim and pocket-friendly. It’s also the foundation of the knife’s patented Compression Lock mechanism, which provides exceptional lock strength, yet allows easy one-handed closing without placing your fingers in the path of the blade’s edge. A streamlined four-position hourglass clip and a generously sized lanyard hole round out the design, offering a choice of left or right-side tip-up or tip-down carry and allowing the easy attachment of lanyards or fobs.

The Para 3 is a remarkably refined folding knife with a distinguished history. It’s also a shining example of our tireless quest for perfection and our deep commitment to meeting our customers’ needs.
