For many users, the best-selling Para 3 represents the perfect balance of compact size, light weight and comprehensive cutting performance.

Spyderco - Para 3 - Sprint Run - Stonewashed CPM-15V & Brown G10 - C223GPBN15V - knife
This exclusive version of the Para 3 features a blade made of CPM 15V, an extraordinary steel that offers the highest wear resistance among all cold-working tool steels available today. With nearly 15 percent vanadium, its unique composition creates a microstructure rich in vanadium carbides, resulting in exceptional cutting performance and amazing edge retention.
The limited design of Spyderco's CPM 15V family of knives is further refined through a specialized heat treatment developed by renowned custom knife maker Shawn Houston. This Sprint Run edition of the Para 3 keeps all the proven elements of this iconic design intact, including the high-strength Compression Lock® mechanism and four-position pocket clip for unparalleled comfort.
To highlight its affiliation with the CPM 15V family, the knife features brown peel-ply textured G-10 grips, with Shawn Houston's “Triple B” logo laser engraved on the back of the blade.
CPM 15V is one of the most advanced and durable steels on the market, thanks to its high vanadium content that creates a rich microstructure of high-hardness carbides. This makes it ideal for those looking for long-lasting cutting performance, even in the harshest conditions. Its production is complex and expensive, but the result is a steel that not only resists wear and tear but also offers exceptional edge retention over time.
