Spyderco Para Military 2 Blackout DLC S45VN Compression Lock Folder C81GPBK2

The Spyderco ParaMilitary 2 folding knife has become one of the world's most popular pocket knives. The size, blade shape and overall fit and finish make it a classic that users just keep coming back for. This “blackout” version of the PM2 has a DLC coated S45VN blade with black scales, liners, and hardware.

Brand new, direct from Spyderco.

CQI: Constant Quality Improvement — S45VN steel with black liners and hardware.

Blade: The classic, straight spine clip point has a sweeping belly and full flat grind that lends itself to both piercing and slicing tasks. Durable, black DLC coating increases corrosion resistance while delivering a discreetly non-reflective finish. The over-sized ambidextrous RoundHole allows for easy opening even in gloves, with smooth phosphor bronze pivot operation.

Handle: Textured black G10, an industrial fiber glass composite laminate, deliver tough, lightweight and nearly impervious handle scales. Nested and skeletonized stainless steel liners support the scales, reducing weight while maintaining a high level of strength. One liner forms the easy to operate Compression Lock mechanism.

Carries via a 4-position, black pocket clip.

CPM-S45VN: An evolution in Crucible's S30-series, S45VN shows improved edge retention and corrosion resistance relative to S35VN and offers an upgrade to Elmax with better hardness, corrosion resistance, toughness, and sharpness with similar edge retention.

Compression Lock: Similar in construction to the Walker Liner Lock, the Compression lock uses a leaf style spring cut into the handle liner. The tang of the spring wedges between the blade tang and stop pin (or anvil pin) for exceptional lock strength, ease of operation and added safety, keeping fingers clear of the blade path during disengagement closing of the knife.
