Product Description

The Spyderco Para™ 3 Lightweight Salt® C223SYL is a masterclass in corrosion-resistant engineering, designed for professionals and adventurers who operate in and around the water. This model features a 2.92" blade crafted from CPM® MagnaCut®, a revolutionary American powder metallurgy steel that achieves the "holy grail" of metallurgy: extraordinary toughness, high edge retention, and total rust-proof performance. The fully serrated SpyderEdge™ significantly increases the cutting surface, allowing the blade to bite deep and slice through heavy cordage and synthetic lines effortlessly.

The handle is injection-molded from high-visibility Yellow FRN (fiberglass-reinforced nylon), ensuring the tool is easy to locate in low-light or underwater environments. Built with an open-backed construction for easy cleaning, the handle features Bi-Directional Texturing™ for an unshakeable grip even when hands are wet or gloved. Supported by ultra-corrosion-resistant hardware and Spyderco’s signature Compression Lock®, this USA-made folder is the definitive choice for a maintenance-free, hard-use maritime EDC.

• CPM MagnaCut Stainless Steel: A premier particle metallurgy steel that provides world-class edge longevity and toughness while remaining completely impervious to rust.

• Fully Serrated SpyderEdge™: Optimized for heavy-duty utility, the serrated edge excels at wood-sawing tasks and slicing through tough, fibrous materials like saltwater rope.

• High-Visibility Yellow FRN: Lightweight, nearly indestructible handle scales in a bright safety color for easy recovery if dropped in water or tall grass.

• Marine-Grade Hardware: Every screw, pin, and the deep-pocket wire clip is crafted from specialized alloys to ensure the entire knife is saltwater-ready.

• Compression Lock® Technology: A high-strength locking mechanism that allows for safe, one-handed closing without placing your fingers in the path of the edge.
