Sleek, simple, and fearlessly corrosion resistant, the long-awaited Para 3 Lightweight Salt may be the ultimate everyday carry knife for those who work in and around the water. This knife takes the innovative Para 3 Lightweight platform and supercharges it with a PlainEdge blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut—a revolutionary powder metallurgy stainless steel that offers an incredible balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Its open-backed fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle is injection molded in bright yellow to ensure high visibility and features Spyderco’s Bi-Directional Texturing for a secure grip, even with wet hands. To complete the package, the knife’s streamlined Compression Lock, reversible deep-pocket carry clip, and all other hardware are all precision machined from ultra-corrosion-resistant materials.

This “Flagship” Best Spyderco knife from Spyderco in Magnacut Steel.

This is the Flagship of the Spyderco fleet, because the Magnacut steel is not available in the regular Spyderco Para 3. This model is very lightweight which is why it became my new EDC, I also have the UK knife model (Slip-joint in Magnacut Steel) for travelling to Europe. The best EDC are both in Magnacut steel are the Spyderco Para 3 Lightweight & the Benchmade Mini Osborne AXIS Lock Knife in Burnt Copper. You cannot go wrong with either of these from Cutting Edge Cutlery Co.
