Spyderco Para Military 2 Gray G10 Folding Knife

The Spyderco Para Military 2 in Gray G10 is based on Maxamet steel, one of the hardest production knife steels currently available, a satin-finished 3.45-inch clip point blade fitted to a gray G10 handle with a Compression Lock.

Maxamet is an extreme powder steel, prized for edge retention that ranks among the very best of any production knife steel currently on the market, a meaningful step above even premium alloys like S30V. That hardness makes Maxamet more brittle and more challenging to sharpen than a softer steel overall, a fair trade-off for buyers who prize long-lasting edge-holding above easy, quick touch-ups. Spyderco's Compression Lock locks the blade with strength while keeping the release lever positioned away from the cutting edge for added safety during closing.

The Para Military 2 has remained one of Spyderco's most respected designs among serious enthusiasts and collectors alike. Made in the USA. Maxamet remains rare across the broader knife industry given how difficult it is to machine. Explore more Modern EDC Linerlocks.
