Spyderco Para Military 2 Lightweight Black FRN Folding Knife

The Spyderco Para Military 2 Lightweight Black FRN (C81PBBK2) has a 3.47-inch CTS BD1N blade with a black finish and an FRN handle. Swapping G-10 for FRN cuts weight, making it one of the lightest full-size Para Military 2 models. Spyderco builds it in Golden, Colorado, and it opens to about 8.3 inches. It is a favorite among hikers and travelers who count every ounce.

CTS BD1N is a Carpenter stainless steel with added nitrogen, known for a fine edge and easy sharpening. The FRN handle has Spyderco's bi-directional texture for grip in both directions. Inside, nested liners keep the handle stiff without much weight. FRN also handles impacts and temperature swings well. BD1N holds up well to moisture, which helps on fishing and camping trips.

The Compression Lock releases from the spine for safe, one-hand closing. The black blade finish cuts glare and hides scratches. A four-position clip and the Round Hole make it easy to carry and open. It is a great pick for people who want the Para Military 2 at the lowest weight. The full flat ground blade slices cleanly, and the finger choil adds control. Rinse the handle with mild soap and water to clean out the texture. G-10 Para Military 2 models are in our folding knives.
