While the Para Military 2 doesn’t weigh much and packs a tremendous amount of utility, at an MSRP of $280.00, it will set you back a pretty penny. It has high-quality G-10 textured handles and a four-position hourglass ambidextrous clip for right or left side tip-up or tip-down carry. The Para Military 2 offers exceptional blade size to weight ratio with its 3.42-inch blade nestled into an overall knife weight of 3.8 ounces (108 grams). Not only did Spyderco shave ¾ of an inch off of the prior knife’s overall length, they increased the quality of the steel to Crucible’s CPM S110V which has the best wear resistance and edge retention on the market. The Para Military 2 is a more compact, more comfortable to carry derivative of Spyderco’s earlier Military Model knife. I’ve owned this knife for several years now, and it is still my number one pick. Hands down, my favorite EDC knife is the Spyderco Para Military 2.
