SP223GBKYLMCP: C223GBKYLMCP Para 3 Salt MagnaCut Yellow/Black G10
Spyderco
Progressive in design and performance, the Para 3 Salt is a source of edge retention, toughness, and superlative corrosion resistance that qualifies it for inclusion in our industry-leading Salt Series knives. The full-flat-ground blade is crafted from CPM-Magnacut and delivers exceptional cutting performance and reliability. It is housed in a handle featuring G10 scales with alternating black and yellow layers. Spyderco's signature Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture 1 pattern is meticulously machined into the scale surfaces, revealing the underlying yellow layer to create a high-visibility, color-contrasting, non-slip pattern. True to its Salt theme, the handle also features a versatile four-position pocket clip and all other hardware is crafted from ultra-corrosion-resistant marine-grade materials.

Great everyday carry knife
I’m really happy with this knife. It feels solid and well made right out of the box, with smooth action and a very secure lockup. The blade came sharp and has been great for everyday tasks, while the size makes it easy to carry without feeling bulky. The G10 handle offers a comfortable, confident grip, and the overall balance feels excellent in hand. You can tell a lot of thought went into the design and build quality. Definitely a knife I’d recommend.

Why did I wait?
Love the knife, I don’t really know why I waited to buy a Spyderco - guess I didn’t see the aesthetic appeal, I’m now hooked for sure - I finally get it. I LOVE it, easy to carry, extremely slicey and absolutely love the solid sound it makes when deploying. I really appreciate the design forethought, engineering, craftsmanship and overall quality.

First magnacut blade I own!
Love this blade. The handle material is great stock. However, I swapped the scales to micarta denim for a cleaner look. Very happy with this para 3.
