Para 3 Salt, Black G10 Handle

Introducing the long-awaited Para 3 Salt Blackout, a knife that embodies sleek simplicity and unwavering corrosion resistance. Crafted for those who live and work around water, this knife takes the innovative Para 3 platform and elevates it to perfection. This model features a revolutionary CPM-MagnaCut blade, presenting an exceptional balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Whether you're cutting ropes, opening packages, or taking on more demanding tasks, this knife is your ultimate everyday companion, especially around water.

To visually distinguish the Para 3 Salt from its brethren and enhance its grip texture for use in wet environments, we also wanted the knife's handle to be distinctive. Borrowing from other highly successful Salt models—the Caribbean Salts—Spyderco designed a CNC-machined pattern called the "Caribbean Bi-Directional Texture" pattern. Starting with medium-textured peel-ply G10, they machine a series of arced grooves emanating from the center of the handle. A raised ridge down the middle of the handle's length adds sophistication to the pattern and creates a "pad" for the pocket clip's contact point to ensure a smooth draw regardless of carry position. The result is a visually stunning pattern that offers enhanced traction and grip security in even the most demanding environmental conditions.
