I carry a para3 lightweight every single day for the last few months and I absolutely love it. Sometimes I will switch to the Mannix2 but the para 3 99% of the time.
I appreciate that Spyderco is able to produce a blade in a steel that no else can. I haven't pulled the trigger on a Maxamet model yet, this review has considerably swayed my opinion.
How did it go,
Did you deside to get one?
I’m so excited I found your channel. I’m a knife nut starting to move from buying all sorts of budget knives into higher end things with quality steel. I think I’ve watched all your videos today. Found you because of all your shaman talk. Keep it up!
Glad to have you here!! Thanks! 😊⚔🍻
First off. She's a keeper buying amazing toys like that for you.
Second. I've broke the tip on 2 Spyderco's. The first they replaced but I'm sure it's because I was active duty. The second I threw in the ocean because I was mad. Those 2 broken knives were not Spyderco's fault. They make cutters, not folding prybars. I, we, have to understand the design and use it accordingly.
Great video you lucky guy.
I'm sorry to hear that. I'm also sorry to hear you threw one in the ocean, but I'd be lying if I said that didnt make me laugh a little bit 🤣. Good to hear you still have a good outlook on their knives 👍
It s a very hard knife to beat .and a good looking knife .
Oh, you're sure it's because you were active duty. Please tell us more, about how you saved America with the tip of your knife. Fucking loser. Sorry I'm a year late, just seeing this! =)
@@cliffs1468 now I'll seriously reply as best I can since you're obviously a dumbass and new to the knife industry. Knife companies typically don't replace knives for broken tips. Don't believe me Einstein, try it. The only company I know of that will is ESEE. The fact that Spyderco replaced mine, which is way out of their warranty, i assume was because of the APO address. I may be wrong.
As for your immediate desire to attack me because I referenced having been in the military, you may want to get that psychological problem checked out before you get yourself hurt. Not saying I'm gonna do it. I'm not an internet tuff guy like yourself. Plus, unfortunately, you don't live near me.
@Cliff S that was a weird fuckin comment honestly. He was obviously just referencing the fact that Spyderco would typically not replace a knife under warranty due to a broken tip. Fuckin loser. Sorry I'm 2 months late :-)
I can practically stop the patina from forming, i.e. I can make it look quite a bit better, by cleaning it with Bar Keeper’s Friend metal polish, which evens the patina out quite a bit. It definitely looks a lot better after that cleaning, just be careful not to get it on the G10, as it tends to stain (I don’t have that problem, having swapped all my G10 out for metal).
My most carried model from Spyderco, just a great design.
I absolutely love the light grey g10 scales on this knife with the maxamet blade it just looks so good can’t wait for mine to be here.
The Spyderco Delica in ZDP 189 steel is a great knife. ZDP is one of the best steels available.
I’d sure like to see it in a PM2 or Manix. Mine holds an edge well, but it doesn’t seem to possess great corrosion resistance.
I finally pulled the trigger on max para 3 today. Can’t wait to get it.
You don’t need to use a hammer to install the lanyard tube! But you do need to do some minor surgery. The problem is mostly in the liner, where the gap where the tube goes through is too tight. I’ve found that if I remove a TINY amount of metal (I use emery cloth wrapped around a drill bit) from the hole where the lanyard tube goes through, the tube pops in and out easily! Furthermore, the knife assembles EASILY! Since I remove just enough metal to allow the tube to slip through, while still fitting quite closely, the assembly is as strong as ever.
I carry a blurple para 3 in S110V. It’s my edc. I first bought a PM2 but did not care for the size. The Para 3 is a much better fit. My wife got me a Para 3 in Maxamet which I have been wanting. I will rotate between the two. The Para 3 just feels like the perfect size knife for what I need. It is a solid build and I’m not easy on it. I bought some fine diamond stones to use with the Spyderco sharpener. Just touch the blade up every now and then and it’s always good to go.
I inadvertantly bought this exact knife about an hour ago. I've been watching your channel for a little while now and I've seen your para 3 with the other color scales you have, can't remember what color, and told myself I'd buy one one day. I can't wait to get it in my hands. And in excited to see how well the maxamet holds up. But yeah, same scales and everything as the one you're showing in this video.
Just bought the 110v version. Can’t wait for it to arrive
I finally got a para 3 today and I LOVE it
Veterans and First Responders get a 50% discount ordering direct from Spyderco so the Maxamet Para 3 can be had for $147.50. I have the Lynch deep carry clip on my Para 3 and it works great but like the looks of your MXG clips better. Enjoyed the review.
It is a good looking knife. I agree I think it is too much. I like Maxamet would love to have one in collection. I also want a cruwear in collection. I look forward to seeing your long term review of the steel.
Maxamet is an interesting steel and in fact I have one grey frn Manix 2 but to me being stainless is very convenient for an EDC model. For that reason the only Para3 I would buy is the Blue CPM S110V version. During hot days a Maxamet or an hypothetical K390 version (like one of my Delicas) literally could rust in my pocket even without have to use it, just because the salty sweat.
I’m a little behind on this video. I’m watching para 3 vids now, because I finally broke down and ordered one. I was never impressed with the paramilitary 2, and I have 2, yet I still don’t get it with that one. In fact, I’ve been a little put off by spyderco in years past. Lately, I’ve been picking them up, and giving them another try. The para 3 has always been kinda compelling, and I wanted to try maxamet.
My first and last spyderco was the Native 5 in MAXAMET.
I had a carpet in the back yard about 3 meters long that was all sandy and shit and my mother wanted me to slice it down the middle.
An "OH SHT" moment for any knife but the maxamet came out with minimal flat spots.
As for sharpening if I use lansky course diamond or medium diamond it comes out chippy fux, the fine diamond (600) works nicely.
In combination with diamond 600, ceramic 1000 and a little stropping. I can get it bity arm hair shaving and semi reflective.
Although I feel like i've got a Popeye arm after sharpening.
C: 2.15;W: 13.00; V: 6.00;
Cr: 4.75; Co: 10.00; Mn: 0.30
; S: 0.070; Si: 0.25;
I’ve got 2 MAXAMET blades and both chipped easily with normal use until I sharpened the factory edge off. Haven’t chipped since and only requires stropping once in a while.
Just bought one, should be here in about 3 days. Can’t wait.
Has anybody noticed that the Maxamet blade is, apparently, made in a different way than most other Spyderco blades? The broad “grind” is, apparently, milled rather than being ground, like I think most blades are made. If you look closely, you can see the straight, even lines made by a tool. That must be Spyderco’s method of working this difficult, wonderful steel.
Can the fine edge on Maxamet be maintained with the Spyderco Sharp Maker?
I have a PM2 Maxamet, but now I want a Para 2.
would like to make a present for my dad. MAXAMET. But couldn't decide which model to pick up, P3 or PM2. ?
Get him Para 3 i more user frendly. I have one and thing is perfect for every day task you might need it.
Good video. Still thinking about the Para 3. Don''t know much about thr maxamet steel. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent video thanks 👍
Just looking at this myself.
Love the pocket clip, can I just ask where you got it from again as I can’t seem to find a link attached.
Cheers
This grey version is very nice! Good upload!
I don’t want the FRN (lightweight) models, because they don’t fit aftermarket scales… ALL my Para 3s, in several different steels, are lightly customized with better scales (titanium, copper and brass) and deep-carry clips, and I LOVE them all! There are some pretty good knives out there, but I consider my Para 3s to be second to very few or none.
The Lynch clip allows the whole lanyard hole to be clear.
Took MC advice para3 maxamet and yeah it’s that great
The benchmade griptillian or, in this case, the ritter houge. Lol. Every video. Classic
Great video. Definitely an entertaining watch. This was exactly what I was looking for. Subscribed, thanks and keep it coming
Yes the box cutter is a good theory and makes sense except it sucks the joy out of cutting.. Working in manufacturing i appreciate pulling my pm2 out whenever I get a chance, which is very often.
I got the Para 3 with s110v steel and blue scales.
Great video. Thanks for the info. Any issues with rust on the Maxamet over the last 8 months?
Honestly no! I hit it with EDCi once every few weeks. Doing great!
Love my para 3’s! Nice gift! Went mxg clip too!
Just ordered mine
It’s always better to speak for yourself in most everything when discussing products that are available for most people to purchase, and Knives’s aren’t the acception to the rule because as you know pocket knives are a popular edc tool for a lot of people. The Spyderco Delica 4 is still one of the best edc options for a lot of people because of weight and the many color options that Spyderco offers. I would think that it would be one of those knives that people would move toward not away from. Don’t knock the lightweight para 3 until you have tried it, I carry one most days and I have many options to choose from but it’s still the one that I go to most days because of the carry ability. Just saying😁✌️😉
I've actually reviewed it now (this was an older video) and ya! Its pretty good! Still prefer the g10 though 😊👍
CPM-4V is a twin for edge retention and “sharpness” compared to Maxamet and if it has DLC coating (ie St. nick exclusive) is just as holy grail of a knife and the Para 3 lightweight is much lighter for EDC.
YOU Post daily, have GREAT taste in knives (SPYDERCO), and prefer PM3 OVER my all time fav, PM2?!! I SUBSCRIBED, and I'm looking forward to learning your back content and newest-forward!
⚔️☠️⚔️
Thank you!! 😊👍🍻⚔
I decided to get one after this review. Thank you!
I wonder if the next Micarta Shaman will wear Maxamet? Maybe K390... I'd think they'll run it in a non-stainless like they did with the CruCarta... stoked for more Spyderco Micarta!
Send it to Spyderco for sharpening for $5.00
I found this video mildly entertaining!!!!! Amazing!!!
I need you to buy a new tape measure.
Thanks for the info
Who on earth are these people prying and putting flex onto a little blade made for slicing ? I think these people might need to belt carry esee knives or something
Did I miss the shortcut to the new pocket clip?
What are the marks on the front and back of the opening holes?
I carry the original Mantra. I like it, not a great flipper but nice size good steel etc. I have the para 3 and 2... sold my Titanium Military... too big!
How does S110V compare to Maxamet in terms of edge retention? I was thinking of getting a Para 3 in Maxamet but since I live in the Philippines where it's quite humid, I decided to not go ahead with it. I do have the S110V versions of the Para 3, PM2 and Military.
I’m planning to buy a maxamet para 3, how’s it holding now?
Great video, sounds like you love this knife...good job to the Mrs, cheers
Witch handle feels better to you para 3 or manix 2 ?
What brand deep carry clips do you always say you use? I’m watching this trying to figure it out. Just got the Para 3 in S45VN and want the deep carry clip.
MXG Deep Carry Pocket Clip. Got it! Thanks! Keep the good vids going!
I gotta check out Maxamet, I wish they made a Manix in G10 with the Maxamet, that's a Spyderco I'd definitely buy, and you got me really thinking about the Shaman MC, if they came out with that in Maxamet I'd jump on it.
I'm telling you, you're gonna LOVE it!
I have heared that it can strop back really quick, is that true?
Whats the item no. for the mxg pocket clip Thank you.
Is there a link for the clip?
Curious what you have to say with todays inflated prices. You mentioned $200 for a maxamet was pushing it back then. Now a standard Para 3 in S45vn is $174.99 and the maxamet version is going for $247.99. Is the maxamet worth going for at that price?
Not really. These are just way too expensive now. But if you like it, go for it. It all comes down to the value perceived by the end user 👍
@@metal_complex thank you I appreciate the response!
What lynch clip finish..? I'm planning to buy one for my maxamet pm3 but not sure what finish to match the blade.
Stonewash lynch clip would compliment the pm3 maxamet perfectly, especially since the scales are grey and the blade is also stonewashed. Wouldn't steer you wrong and also well aware it's 1 year to late.
What kind of oil are you using on the blade metal?
Some break free clp. Not much. I want it to patina.
"don't cut into rocks or metal" lollll got it.
Sorry for all the questions 😆 How many cut outs do you have in the frame in the handle? Mine has 1 in the middle-ish. The Para 2 has 2 cutouts. Just making sure mines real. My hardware, jimping, and blade seem legit.
I have this knife. The clip side has one hole milled into that runs long ways with the handle. That is it.
Do you have an update on the patina on your Para 3 in Maxamet?
I actually show it close up in a video coming Saturday. Almost nothing formed despite carrying it 4+ days a week.
Metal Complex that’s kinda sad actually. I like the way a good patina looks!
@@rcjd7834 could just be where I live. My hope is that it forms soon!
They have a lw manix 2 in maxamet but that's frn and cant be disassembled. I'm sure they will do a regular one soon.
Right. Those are the ones I couldn't bring myself to buy.
@@metal_complex I'm with you on that.
I just can't get excited about the para 3. I prefer larger knives but do have a sage 5 which is about the same size. I don't own any maxamet blades but have read it can be a pain to sharpen.
I just picked up my first Para 3, the red DLT exclusive. Fairly new to Spyderco after being a Benchmade guy for 25 years. I have never carried a small knife but this little guy is pretty nice, that being said the Para 2 may have ruined me forever. I just love it, even more so than the half dozen Microtechs I own.
@@meee175 I like the pm2 but prefer the Shaman. I love the Benchmade superfreek also.
this is my dream pocket knife for edc currently saving up awesome vid~!!!!
How does it compare to the Osborne in your opinion
Just paid 300$ on eBay for it idc I wanted it bad and i could not find any no where and I got super lucky on eBay before it would of sold
Honest question, why do review videos spend so much time weighing and measuring knives. Does it change enough to matter from one knife to another beyond what is published? The specs are easy to find. I just don’t get why everyone does this.
This video gained you a subscriber!
I MIGHT have actually handled these blades, my company heat treated these, like 70hrc it was kinda a pain tho they like to warp so we had to fiddle with the nitrogen to keep it from hitting the blade too hard..
Interesting!
That explains why all the factory seconds were warped
@@leotam3372 we take the warped ones we find and set them aside, but when the order is 3-4K PCs it’s hard to find all of them on our end. We have a tight schedule
Nice, I’m going to buy it
I broke 2 pm2 tips n 1 lw tip on carpet!
MXG has much better deep carryclip…and looks better in my opinion….definitely check them out.
160$, 170$... i wish, here in europe this exact version goes for over 300€😅
So, I use my EDC for chamfering the insides of round holes in 3d printed parts and trimming other plastic things. Would the torsional load of reaming a hole chip maxamet?
I honestly have no idea
Metal Complex I guess what I’m asking is just how chippy is it? I’m currently using 14C28N and it holds up relatively well, it doesn’t chip, but a strop is needed to get it back to pristine
Hickkok rocks a delica. Just saying
I got divorced so I could buy Spyderco knives!
What’s the pocket clip recommended?
Mxg deep carry clip made specifically for the para 3 👍
FRN is trash. Never understood why a flip knife needs a lightweight version. If you can't lift 5oz minimum then you got some health issues.
You are absolutely right! 💯 😂
I need this.
cheapest pm 3 is 200 eur here :(
Do you know what size tool I need to change the pocket clip?
T6 👍
No left handed compression lock option on the para3...pm2 wins
Give it time. Wont be long 👍
There's a left handed model.
I think the para 2 is ugly I just don’t like the looks I love the para 3
I've noticed para 3 will not open and close as smooth as paramilitary 2
That's odd, I have 6 versions of them and after a little oil in the pivot, they all drop shut with no blade play.
I'm probably the only Spyderco fan on Earth that fully appreciates the factory clips. I can't stand deep carry clips.
Not trying to be a knob, but 29 minutes of looking at the same side of the knife? C’mon...show the whole thing.
I've got like 20 videos on the Para 3. I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for.
Cut jabber 70%.This is a 2 minute video
When I made this video I had about 10k subs. I kept doing it the same way, and now I have 225k+
No, I don't think I'll take your advice.
My gif just shoot me, to much comparing … FUCK
