Product Description
The Spyderco Para 3™ Lightweight C223PPNBK is a striking, high-performance folder that balances tactical utility with a meaningful cause. This "Black Blade" edition features a breathtaking two-tone color scheme, pairing a stealthy DLC-coated blade with a vibrant pink handle. As part of Spyderco’s commitment to the community, a portion of the proceeds from every sale is donated to Living Beyond Breast Cancer (LBBC) to provide resources and support for those affected by the disease.
The 2.92" blade is crafted from CTS® BD1N stainless steel, a nitrogen-enriched alloy that delivers excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade is finished with a non-reflective Black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating, which is matched by black coatings on the liners, deep-pocket wire clip, and all handle hardware. At only 2.4 ounces, this USA-made folder features a high-strength Compression Lock® and Bi-Directional Texturing™ for a secure, lightweight carry experience that makes a statement.
