Performance with Personality
The Spyderco Para 3 SMKW Exclusive “Purple Haze” edition blends the brand’s proven everyday carry platform with a bold, highly collectible finish. Compact, balanced and supremely pocket-friendly, the Para 3 remains one of Spyderco’s most versatile designs, and this exclusive variant adds real visual presence to an already respected format. The striking purple-and-black FatCarbon handle scales create a distinctive marbled effect while maintaining secure, ergonomic handling. A reversible stainless steel pocket clip ensures adaptable carry, and the knife’s clean lines and precise construction reflect Spyderco’s longstanding commitment to reliability and refinement.
This example is only technically 'pre-owned', it is brand new in box directly from SMKW.

Exclusive Materials, Everyday Capability
At its core is a full-flat-ground blade crafted from CPM Cru-Wear tool steel and finished with a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating for enhanced wear resistance and reduced reflectivity. Cru-Wear is well regarded for its impressive balance of toughness and edge retention, making it well suited to demanding cutting tasks. The full-flat grind promotes efficient slicing performance, while Spyderco’s Trademark Round Hole enables smooth, one-handed deployment. Paired with the Para 3’s robust locking mechanism and precise fit and finish, this exclusive configuration offers a compelling combination of advanced materials and standout aesthetics.
