The Para Military 2 is one of Spyderco's most popular and iconic designs. It is therefore fitting that it serves as a platform to showcase our proprietary blade steel-CPM SPY27. Developed in close cooperation with Crucible Industries and exclusive to Spyderco, CPM SPY27 enhances the proven alloy formula of VG-10 stainless steel with niobium and nitrogen, additional carbon, molybdenum, and vanadium, along with the many advantages of Crucible's state-of-the-art particle metallurgy process. To further highlight this elite blade steel, the knife's handle is capped with peel-ply-textured G-10 scales in a distinctive cobalt blue-one of the signature colors of the SPY27 family of knives. Founded in 1976, Spyderco is a leading innovator in high-performance knives, known for their signature round hole and ergonomic designs. Trusted by outdoor enthusiasts, first responders, and professionals, Spyderco uses advanced materials like CPM S30V and SPY27 steel to create durable, reliable tools. With a focus on precision and innovation, Spyderco continues to set the standard for quality in the knife industry.
