When Spyderco introduced the first sprint run Shaman combining the traditional look of brown canvas Micarta scales and CPM CRU-WEAR blade steel, we were overwhelmed by the response. Later dubbed “CruCarta,” this distinctive pairing of old-school, high-performance materials became an instant classic. To ensure we could meet customer demand when we applied the “CruCarta” treatment to other models, we decided to make them full-line products, not limited editions. We began with the Para Military 2 and are now proud to add four more USA-made models to this elite family. All feature skeletonized full stainless steel liners, slim brown canvas Micarta scales, and CPM CRU-WEAR tool steel blades that offer an outstanding balance of edge retention and toughness. The scales of all these knives are sanded smooth but left unpolished, so they will naturally patina with age and handling to develop their own unique character.

Poor detent
I avidly collect/EDC Spyderco and primarily the Para3. I'd waited on this one to drop in Cruwear for a couple months. This knife was perfectly functional and I've had great experiences with Cruwear in general. It was SLICEY, perfectly centered, no blade play. My issue was it has the softest detent I'd ever gotten on a Spyderco. I "could" have potentially fixed it to suit me but I do enjoy a factory fresh action. I'm in the process off returning. I'm hoping I just got one that was kinda marginal on being acceptable, maybe I'll get another one down the road.

Typical quality spyderco
I have had the para 2 for close to 7 years now and love it. Always had my eye on the 3 and finally pulled the trigger. As always, fast shipping. When it came, it was razor sharp, smooth action and the micarta is fantastic quality. Could not be any happier with my purchase!

Good variation
Came centered, sharp, and with good action. Excellent delivery by REC as usual.

Stellar PM3
Great knife out of the box. My only complaint is the pattern of micarta is different on each side it appears. Great blade though with perfect grind and scary sharp

Para 3 Cru Time!
Absolutely love this little knife. The Micarta feels great and in Cru Wear. *Chef Kiss*.
