The Spyderco Para Military 2 with a Black DLC blade (brand part no. C81GPBK2) takes one of Spyderco’s most popular folders and finishes the blade dark for a low-profile, non-reflective look. Made by Spyderco at its U.S. factory in Golden, Colorado, the 3.42-inch CPM S45VN blade is full-flat-ground and secured by Spyderco’s signature Compression Lock, with the same textured G-10 handle and four-position clip that made the standard Para Military 2 a benchmark folding knife.
