Product description

The Para Military 2

Crafted for Life

Considered by many the perfect everyday carry cutting tool, the Para Military 2 distills all the proven performance characteristics of the iconic Military Model into a more compact package.

It then enhances the platform with the addition of Spyderco’s patented Compression Lock, which uses the handle’s nested stainless steel liners, the stop pin, and an upward-facing ramp on the blade’s tang to create a high-strength, extremely user-friendly locking mechanism.

A versatile, four-position clip and large lined lanyard tube complement the blade’s fully accessible Round Hole to allow a full range of carrying positions and fully ambidextrous one-handed opening. Hands down one of Spyderco’s most popular and in-demand models, the Para Military 2 is available with a variety of different blade steels, finishes, and handle materials.
