Description
This Sprint Run of the Para 3 Lightweight features a blade crafted from CPM 15V, a premium steel known for its remarkable wear resistance in cold-work tool steels. With nearly 15 percent vanadium, CPM 15V forms a dense array of vanadium carbides, resulting in exceptional cutting performance and outstanding edge retention. Spyderco’s limited-edition CPM 15V series benefits from a specialized heat-treating protocol developed by respected knifemaker Shawn Houston. This Para 3 Lightweight model includes all the signature elements, such as a streamlined Compression Lock and a reversible deep-pocket wire clip. To set it apart as part of the CPM 15V collection, it boasts a brown injection-molded FRN handle and features Shawn Houston’s “Triple B” logo engraved on the back of the full-flat-ground blade.
