Product Description
The Spyderco Para™ 3 Lightweight C223PFG is a Knifeworks Exclusive designed for the discerning EDC enthusiast who demands elite materials in a featherlight package. This limited-edition model features a 3.0" blade crafted from CTS-204P stainless steel, a premium powder metallurgy alloy produced by Carpenter Technology. Renowned for its exceptional balance of wear resistance, toughness, and extreme corrosion resistance, CTS-204P ensures this Para 3 stays sharper longer through the most demanding daily tasks.
The blade features a full-flat grind for superior slicing geometry and a signature satin finish. The handle is injection-molded from Forest Green FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), a color exclusive to this Knifeworks run. Despite weighing only 2.4 ounces (approximate), the knife offers rock-solid reliability thanks to Spyderco's high-strength Compression Lock® and Bi-Directional Texturing™ for an unshakeable grip. Proudly made in Golden, Colorado, this exclusive Para 3 LW is the ultimate fusion of collector-tier steel and professional-grade utility.
