Spyderco C81SYL2 Para Military 2 Salt (CPM MagnaCut, Clip Point, Satin, FRN, Serrated) Lightweight Folding Knife

The Spyderco C81SYL2 Para Military 2 Lightweight Salt combines the proven Para Military 2 design with an ultra-lightweight Salt Series construction. This variant features a fully serrated SpyderEdge blade made from CPM MagnaCut, offering an excellent balance of edge retention, toughness, and extreme corrosion resistance.

The satin-finished blade uses a full-flat grind and is paired with a bright yellow fiberglass-reinforced nylon (FRN) handle. Spyderco's Bi-Directional Texture provides enhanced grip security while keeping the knife lightweight and highly visible around water.

A streamlined Compression Lock provides secure operation, while the reversible deep-pocket wire clip allows left- or right-side tip-up carry. Corrosion-resistant marine-grade handle components and hardware further support the Salt Series design.
