This distinctive expression of the Para Military 2 combines all the proven qualities of the best-selling standard version of this model with Carpenter® steel’s state-of-the-art Micro-Melt® Maxamet® blade steel.

Maxamet is an extremely hard high-speed powdered tool steel developed specifically for use in the rollers in Carpenter’s steel mills. It possesses properties that transcend conventional high-speed tool steels and approach those of cemented carbides—the ultra-hard materials used to machine other steels. Spyderco is one of only a handful of companies to master the specialized methods necessary to machine, heat treat, and grind this demanding material to yield reliable, high-performance knife blades. We are now proud to offer it in selected models made in our U.S. factory in Golden, Colorado.

This knife's full-flat-ground PlainEdge™ blade takes full advantage of Maxamet's qualities, offering an unparalleled combination of strength, low-friction cutting performance, edge retention, and point utility. It is housed in a handle featuring dark gray textured G-10 scales and nested stainless steel liners that form the foundation of its high-strength Compression Lock® mechanism. A versatile four-position pocket clip and generously sized lined lanyard hole complete the package and support all possible carry preferences.

  This product is being sold as a Factory Second. If a knife or other product doesn’t meet our stringent quality-control standards, it is declared a Factory Second and removed from our first-quality inventory.

  Typically, products are declared seconds because they have some kind of minor cosmetic flaw or because they do not satisfy a non-critical quality-control standard. While these flaws may affect the product’s appearance, they do not compromise its proper mechanical operation. Regardless of the specific reason a knife is declared a second, it remains safe for normal use. To clearly differentiate our Factory Seconds from our first-quality products, knives are all marked with a small notch on the spine of the blade near the handle.

  Due to the nature of Factory Seconds, we are not able to accommodate special requests. All products are drawn randomly from inventory pre-selected for the sale. No hand-picking will be done.

  Although Factory Seconds are fully functional and ideal for utilitarian use, they are not covered under Spyderco’s standard warranty policy and may not be returned to Spyderco for service.
