Product Description
The Para Military 2 C81GPCMOBK2 distills Spyderco's Military design into a more compact, pocket-friendly folder with a Compression Lock and a four-position clip. This version pairs a 3.45" black DLC CPM S45VN blade with digital camo G-10 and black-coated liners, clip, and hardware.
CPM S45VN is a powder metallurgy stainless steel from Crucible, developed as an advance on CPM S35VN with added niobium for a fine, tough structure. It balances edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, so it holds a working edge through daily use and stands up to sweat and humid weather. The 0.145" blade is full-flat ground and finished with a black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating for a non-reflective look, and its textured index-finger choil and thumb ramp support a choked-up grip for precise cuts.
- Blade: 3.45" CPM S45VN clip point with a 3.05" PlainEdge, full-flat grind, black DLC coating, 0.145" thick; textured index-finger choil and thumb ramp.
- Handle: Digital camo peel-ply-textured G-10 scales with skeletonized, black-coated stainless steel liners nested into machined recesses, in an open-backed build with black hardware; 4.82" closed, 3.8 oz.
- Deployment + Lock: Spyderco Trademark Round Hole for one-handed opening with either hand; the Compression Lock releases from the spine side, so your fingers stay clear of the closing blade.
- Carry: Black four-position hourglass clip for tip-up or tip-down carry on the right or left side, plus an oversized lined lanyard hole; 8.26" overall.
Ideal for: EDC carriers who want a mid-size folder with full-size handling; hunters and outdoor users who like a camo handle with a low-glare blade; and Para Military 2 fans who want the black-and-camo combination.
The Spyderco Para Military 2 in black DLC CPM S45VN with digital camo G-10 (C81GPCMOBK2) ships same or next business day from Columbia, Louisiana. Knifeworks is an authorized Spyderco dealer.
Spyderco Para Military 2: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the Spyderco Para Military 2 (C81GPCMOBK2).
What lock does the Spyderco Para Military 2 C81GPCMOBK2 use?+
The Para Military 2 uses Spyderco's Compression Lock, built into black-coated, skeletonized stainless steel liners nested into machined recesses in the G-10 scales. When the knife is open, a leaf spring in the liner wedges between the blade tang and the stop pin. You release it from the spine side of the handle with one hand, which keeps your fingers out of the blade's path as it closes.
How does the Para Military 2 compare to the Military?+
Spyderco designed the Para Military 2 to distill the performance of its Military model into a more compact, pocket-friendly folder. It adds the Compression Lock and a four-position clip, and keeps the full-flat ground blade, Trademark Round Hole, and textured choil and thumb ramp, in a 3.45-inch blade and a 4.82-inch closed length.
What is CPM S45VN steel, and what does the black DLC coating do?+
CPM S45VN is a powder metallurgy stainless steel from Crucible, developed as an advance on CPM S35VN with added niobium for a fine, tough structure. It balances edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating gives the blade a non-reflective finish and adds a hard surface layer over the steel.
What is the Para Military 2 blade good for?+
The C81GPCMOBK2 has a 3.45-inch clip point blade with a 3.05-inch PlainEdge and a full-flat grind, so it slices cleanly for opening packages, breaking down boxes, cutting cord, and food prep. The textured index-finger choil and thumb ramp let you choke up on the blade for detailed, controlled cuts.
What comes with the Para Military 2 C81GPCMOBK2?+
The C81GPCMOBK2 ships as a knife with its four-position pocket clip installed. It is knife only, with no sheath or lanyard included. Packaging and included items are set by Spyderco and are subject to change.
