Product Description
The Spyderco Para Military 2 C81GPDBL2 combines one of Spyderco’s most proven folding-knife designs with premium CPM S110V blade steel. This version pairs the high-performance blade with distinctive dark blue G-10 handle scales, creating a Para Military 2 that’s as visually distinctive as it is capable. Spyderco introduced this full-production variation in 2015.
The 3.44-inch full-flat-ground blade is made from CPM S110V, a highly wear-resistant stainless tool steel known for excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. The signature Spyderco Round Hole provides fast, ambidextrous one-handed opening.
The Para Military 2’s Compression Lock securely locks the blade open while allowing the knife to be closed one-handed without putting your fingers directly in the path of the edge. The ergonomic dark blue G-10 handle is built around stainless steel liners and features a four-position pocket clip for right- or left-hand, tip-up or tip-down carry.

About brand
Quick! List the most respected and innovative knife companies you can think of. If you know anything about knives, Spyderco is somewhere near the top. Spyderco Inc. makes some of the most unique and downright bizarre knife designs you'll see on the market, but from the number of passionate fans discussing, debating, and learning everything they can about Spyderco knives, it's clear that the company has done something right.
From the Glesser Family and the Spyderco Crew:
Since starting Spyderco we've been told our knives are different, peculiar, even out there. All true. Thinking beyond established knife industry barriers allowed us to introduce new and radical innovations to the knife culture including: One-hand opening, serrations on a folder and a clip to attach a knife to a pocket.
We didn't go into business to rake in a mountain of dough we're here for more selfish reasons- indulging our passion for creating knives. Spyderco is definitely out of the norm in the knife industry in our dedication to researching and developing fresh, improved and better performing materials all with function and reliability being key.
Someone once said to Sal Glesser, Spyderco's owner, 'You must design in the dark because your knives look so strange.' True again. Our recognizable appearance is a result of designing ergonomic functional tools rather than applying lipstick and nylons to a pocketknife. We may look curious, homely, whatever, but we'll never be called unusable or undependable.
Making knives that consistently deliver reliable high-performance requires an ongoing commitment to testing. In our million-dollar testing facility we examine edge retention with a CATRA machine, look for rust development with Q-FOG, check the force needed to open and close a knife. We also repeatedly test for stress, wear, optimal heat-treating and actively search for higher quality, performance enhancing steels and materials.
As a customer you probably don't think about this, or much care, but it allows us to put forth a promise. When you purchase a Spyderco you are buying a high-quality reliable cutting tool designed and manufactured for peak performance and ergonomic comfort. Those Who Know Carry Spyderco.
