Spyderco Para 3 Cobalt Blue CPM SPY27 G-10 Folding Knife

The Spyderco Para 3 Cobalt Blue CPM SPY27 G-10 Folding Knife (brand part no. C223GPCBL) represents the perfect balance of compact size, light weight, legally permissible blade length, and full-service cutting performance that made the standard Para 3 a best seller. This remarkable version raises the bar with a blade crafted from Spyderco’s proprietary CPM SPY27 stainless steel, which starts with the time-tested alloy formula of VG-10 and increases the volumes of carbon, molybdenum, and vanadium while adding niobium and nitrogen. Crucible Industries’ state-of-the-art particle metallurgy process ensures a uniform distribution of these alloys for an extremely homogenous microstructure. To mark it as a member of the elite SPY27 family, the handle features peel-ply-textured G-10 scales in a distinctive cobalt blue color.
