SP223SBBK: C223PBBK Para 3 Lightweight Black Blade

Spyderco

The award-winning Para 3 Lightweight is rapidly redefining the state-of-the-art in ultralight cutting tools. For tactical end users who prefer subdued blade finishes, this revolutionary design is now also available with a stealthy black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating. Its fully serrated blade is full-flat ground from CTS-BD1N stainless steel and supported by a streamlined version of Spyderco's patented Compression Lock. To complement the blade's finish, the screws and reversible deep-pocket carry clip on its injection-molded, fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle also sport a non-reflective black coating.

Great knife for EDC!!
This is a great knife to add to any collection. It is lightweight, smooth opening, and sharp right out of the box. Another plus is the compression lock. I have other Spydercos but this one seems to fit my needs and specs for EDC. I would recommend it to anyone looking to get a reliable knife for a reasonable price for its quality and workmanship.
