- The New EDC: The Para 3 distills all the features of that best-in-class folding knife into a more compact, carry-friendly package. Ounce for once one of the most capable folding knives ever made, the Para 3 is destined to be a classic.
- Superior Quality: Machined from premium CTS BD1N, a nitrogen-enriched high-carbon chromium steel, the Para 3 offers superior balance, edge retention, and low-friction cutting performance.
- Pocket-Friendly: It features a lightweight, open-backed construction style and its Stainless Steel liners are nested into the FRN Handle. This reduces handle thickness and provides excellent support for the knife's Compression Lock.
- Reliable High Performance: The Para 3 traces its history all the way back 2004 to the introduction of the Para Military design. It offers the same proven reliability and cutting performance, but in a more compact, easy-to-carry design.
- Easy-to-Use Lock: Located in the spine of the handle, the Compression Lock's high-strength mechanism locks the blade securely open during use, yet allows it to be closed easily and safely with only one hand.
Spyderco was founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. In
1978, they settled in Golden, Colorado, and initially, the company focused on
selling our first product: the Tri-Angle Sharpmakerâ which was primarily sold
at fairs and trade shows around the country. Since then, Spyderco has steadily
grown to become one of the leaders in the cutlery industry. In addition to a
worldwide distribution network and manufacturing resources in the U.S., Japan,
Taiwan, Italy, and China, our innovation has also earned us an impressive
portfolio of patents, trademarks, and industry awards. More importantly, it
has allowed us to earn the trust and loyalty of countless thousands of
dedicated knife users around the worldâan audience to whom we are extremely
grateful. The Meadowlark Lightweight has long been one of the
bestselling knives in Spyderco's value-priced byrd line of cutlery, and this
second generation model offers several design improvements over the original.
Upgrades include a full flat-ground blade, and phosphor bronze pivot washers
for exacting blade operation. Jimping along the spine and choil create a solid
grip in your hand, and a four-position clip enables a variety of carrying
positions. Specifications 6.9-inch open length 3.9-inch closed length 2.9-inch

Thinking beyond established knife industry practices has allowed Spyderco to
introduce new innovations, including one-hand opening, serrations on a folder,
and a clip to attach a knife to a pocket. Spyderco remains dedicated to
researching and developing improved, better-performing materials with function
and reliability, and its unique cutlery line is a result of designing
ergonomic, functional tools. The company puts its new products through
rigorous testing prior to release, examining edge retention with a CATRA
machine, looking for rust development with Q-FOG, checking the force needed to
open and close a knife, and analyzing numerous other technical details.
