Maxamet Steel, Maximum Performance
The Spyderco Para Military 2 is already a benchmark in the world of folding knives, known for its strength, ergonomics and reliability. This exclusive Maxamet edition takes that proven design to new heights with a blade crafted from Carpenter’s state-of-the-art Micro-Melt Maxamet steel. Originally developed for use in the rollers of steel mills, Maxamet is a high-speed powdered tool steel that bridges the gap between traditional tool steels and ultra-hard cemented carbides. The result is outstanding hardness and wear resistance, allowing the Para Military 2 Maxamet to deliver exceptional edge retention and cutting performance. Spyderco is one of only a handful of manufacturers capable of working with this advanced material, ensuring each blade meets the highest standards of performance and durability.
This example is unused and uncarried. The blade steel has darkened very slightly as Maxamet does and the pocketclip has been installed in the RHTU configuration, otherwise mint and complete with original box.
"No collection is complete without a piece of Maxamet, experience the highest levels of edge retention ever to grace the PM2 platform." - Mr. Narwhal 
Where Legendary Design Meets Advanced Metallurgy
Pairing this remarkable blade with its iconic design, the Para Military 2 Maxamet features a full-flat grind for smooth, low-friction cuts and excellent point control. The handle is built with textured dark grey G-10 scales over nested stainless steel liners, providing both strength and a secure grip. A reliable Compression Lock mechanism, four-position pocket clip, and generous lanyard hole offer versatility for all carry styles. Whether you’re seeking a premium upgrade or browsing second hand Spyderco UK listings, the Para Military 2 Maxamet stands out as a cutting tool that blends innovation, strength and proven design heritage.
