Japanese knifemaker Kazuyuki Sakurai specializes in intricate, handcrafted folding knives, many of which are inspired by the shapes of animals. Some of his most popular designs are the dog-shaped knives in his “Pochi” (poh-chee) series, which draws its name from the most common Japanese dog name, roughly the equivalent of “Spot.”

His first Spyderco collaboration faithfully translates this novel design into a unique production folder with a hollow-ground CPM S45VN™ blade, a bead-blasted titanium handle, a Reeve Integral Lock (R.I.L.), and a blue-anodized folding “tail,”
titanium pocket clip, and pivot-pin accent.

This stunning expression of the iconic Para Military 2 pairs a CPM CRU-WEAR blade with classic brown canvas Micarta handle scales. Its full-flat-ground PlainEdge™ blade capitalizes on CRU-WEAR’s hard-earned reputation for taking and holding a superior edge while remaining tough and resilient.

The precision-machined scales are supported by full skeletonized stainless steel liners that also form the backbone of the knife’s Compression Lock mechanism. They reveal the Micarta’s handsome layered construction and provide a platform for a four-position pocket clip and lined lanyard hole that support all possible carry positions and preferences.

Undeniably one of Spyderco’s most popular and in-demand designs, the Para Military 2 distills the world-class performance of our legendary Military Model into a more compact, pocket-friendly package. Not content with that feat, it then added the extreme strength, reliability, and ease of use of our Compression Lock mechanism and the versatility of a four-position pocket clip.

The resulting synergy is far greater than the sum of its parts and, to many end users, represents the ultimate folding knife design. To push the performance envelope even further, this model features CPM S45VN blade steel and textured black G-10 scales.

Spyderco’s best-selling Para 3 folding knife distilled all the key qualities of their time-tested Para Military™ 2 model into an ultra-compact, carry-friendly format. Now this groundbreaking design takes another quantum leap forward by incorporating injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) scales and a streamlined version of Spyderco’s Compression Lock® mechanism to create the Para 3 Lightweight.

Almost 30 percent lighter than its G-10-handled counterparts, the Para 3 Lightweight boasts linerless, open-backed construction and Spyderco’s high-traction Bi-Directional Texture™ pattern for a secure grip. A stainless steel lock bar inset into the handle’s interior forms the foundation of its sturdy lock mechanism, while keeping the overall weight to an absolute minimum. The knife’s full-flat-ground blade is crafted from CTS® BD1N, a nitrogen-enriched high-carbon chromium steel that offers a superior balance of hardness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance.

Available with a choice of PlainEdge™ or fully serrated SpyderEdge™ cutting edges, the blade features a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole™ for quick, one-handed opening with either hand. A generously sized lanyard hole and a reversible deep-pocket wire clip round out its impressive features, providing discreet left or right-side tip-up carry and allowing the easy attachment of fobs or lanyards.

The mini version of the popular Boost adds another excellent option to Benchmade's AXIS-assisted opening knives. It features the same dual durometer handles as its full-size brother that greatly increase grip performance while maintaining strength. It also incorporates a mini deep-carry pocket clip and the reliable, fast-action AXIS-Assist mechanism which makes this a top-notch EDC performer.

The 556-S30V Mini Griptilian model features a drop point CPM-S30V blade, ambidextrous thumb stud openers and an AXIS lock mechanism. The handles are made from Noryl GTX with a reversible pocket clip for completely ambidextrous carry. With multiple blade styles, sizes and colors your Grips just got a little wilder
