The Para® 3 Lightweight is a full-service cutting tool that also happens to be amazingly compact and lightweight. As such, it has become a popular choice for women, whose shallow pockets are not well suited to larger knives. To make it an even better “ladies’ choice,” Spyderco is proud to offer it with a bright pink fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) handle and a choice of two blade and hardware finishes. Both versions of this stylish knife feature a full-flat-ground CTS® BD1N stainless steel blade, a streamlined Compression Lock® mechanism, a non-slip Bi-Directional Texture™ pattern on the handle, and a reversible deep-pocket wire clip that provides a choice of left or right-side tip-up carry. The version with the tumbled blade finish is paired with brightly finished handle hardware. The second version showcases a stunning black-and-pink theme with a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) blade coating and black-coated liners, clip, and handle hardware.
