Good news! Not only can you take this knife apart easily, it's also very easy to put back together. Very few parts as this knife doesn't even have a liner! The only parts in this knife are the blade, scales, 1 washer, 1 lock bar - that's it! (well, screws + pocket clip too). No annoying lanyard tube like the G10 Para 3/PM2 to deal with either, so no risk of damaging the scales. Honestly easier to reassemble than any Axis lock by quite some margin IMO. So happy to see you are getting along well with this knife. My Para 3 LW is my most used/carried knife. It seems like this might be the first knife "with egos" (with hand/finger grooves) that you enjoy!
These Are Some Of The Nicest Easy To Maintain EDC Knifes U Could Come Across!! The LT Para 3 Are Very Usable and Carry So Easily!! I Really Like Ur Casts , Nice And Honest Good Info Not Tons Of Fluff !!! Nicely Filmed Too !!! All Respects Ur One Beautiful PHYNE LOOKING GEEK !!! LUV THE FRUMPY !! Ur Hair Is STUNNING!!

Love that color! I wish they'd do more factory coloring like that. I use 4 Para 3's at work (not at the same time). I cut a lot of dusty shrink wrap, cardboard and plastic banding, along with some non-knifey stuff. Dusty shrink dulls knives and even the S35VN hold up pretty well. Great knives. The knives you like the most will always be the ones you actually use. I gave a coworker a Ontario Rat 2 and it is his constant companion, getting good use. It is a great warehouse knife! I'd like to see you put one through your work tasks.
My Para lightweight just got here yesterday. I haven't really used it yet. Cut some paper with it and checked if it was centered. Its been in my pocket more than in my hand. Not sure about the wire pocket clip. Its not the wire, I just don't like pocket clips and would prefer plain scales. I can feel that clip but nit so much that I felt the need to remove it. The clip is staying for now. I did buy this to throw into a bag as a spare, just in case.but I do like it. I now don't know if my nrxt knife will be a bugout of an ordinary Para 3. I have watched your review on the bugout and custom scales, very tempting. TH-cam has become a huge commercial lol but its still useful.
One problem with knife reviews is one you touched on here: reviewers. I rely on knife reviewers, because where I live, there are no stores that carry anything more than some Kershaws, Gerbers, and a bunch of gas station knives. Some years ago, I read the reviews and decided a Bugout sounded perfect, and it almost is. It's light, has a great blade, and it is so easy to carry. BUT...in hand, it feels cheaper than the gas station knives I've often had. It is plastic, it flexes in hand, and it feels flimsy. I know it works well (the blade is great for slicing), but I can't get over it feeling like a Mattel product. Yeah, sure, the Dutch Knife Bros showed how strong it really is, but that doesn't change the fact I paid way too much for something that feels like a toy. My next purchase on recommendations by "reviewers" was a Spyderco Manix 2 LW. It's big, it's strong, and despite the plastic handles, doesn't feel flimsy at all. BUT, in my hands, it feels like a tall, thin, sharp-edged piece of hard plastic. It isn't comfortable, despite everyone saying "it has great ergonomics". I've given them both a chance, but I like neither. If I'd had them available to at least hold in my hands, I would never have bought either. FYI, I eventually located a store that has Benchmades, and *only* about an hour away. They are also a Spyderco dealer, but since they don't carry them in stock, that is no help. A visit to this store convinced me not to buy a 940, so that was worth the trip.
I just bought one. I do like it; though I think if I had to compare, I would take my Native 5 Salt LC200N. Advantage of PM3 is the wire clip, and the smoothened bi-directional touch. My comparisson is based off of my Two native 5 Salt LWs, PM3 LW, Dragonfly 2, Endura 4, and Delica 4. I think if Native 5 Salt was offered in orange, with wire clip, and in Magnacut...... I wouldn't need another Spyderco.
I’d be curious what you think about Spyderco’s lil’ Native. It has a thick blade stock for a small Spyderco… it’s a sort of “hard use” option for people in towns with a 2.5” blade limit. But I’m wondering how practical it is given its limited length.
Just caught this video and subscribed!!! 😜 You are one crazy and no bullshit chic!!! Love it👊 I've been on the fence about the para 3. If I do decide to get one it will probably be the S45 version... although the 110 seem to be some pretty incredible steel too!!! 🤔
I FUCKING LOVE YOU!! 😂 This is perfect, you’re so real and honest it’s exactly what we need. Also, I’m so glad you don’t say “subscribe, share, comment, like” people will do that if they want to. And obviously we know it’s better for your channel if we do. We don’t need to be told! Can’t wait to see your real review on the LW whenever you actually test it!
I use my gear. Some is kept pretty but all gets used. Our laws are a tad different to yours so I can’t openly carry like you guys in the US. I’m in Australia and we aren’t allowed knives unless it’s for work or camping. Our laws are ridiculous but they are what they are. I’ve carried a pocket knife everyday for over 25 years now, I’ve only recently started getting into better, non-servo knives. I’ve always had knives, I just had crap till now. It’s hard to carry a nice knife knowing that if you get searched, or even pull it out, you risk losing it and being fined. So, I carry a Leatherman K2 while most of my nice folders stay at home. Our laws suck!
Get em. It's sooo Tru tho. They say it held up well yet they literally opened packages. I need 2 knives because 1 has gunk or Greece or something. So I carry a clean knife slippy and a dirty knife. Aka work knife.
@@ericasedc once you get a few sharpenings in on Maxamet it's a whole different steel. You have to get rid of any abrasion fatigue from the production process down by the apex to give it a fair shot.
I hate this knife. 🙄 The pocket clip got loose, so I tried snugging it up, I stripped the stupid D Shaft that holds it on. Like...just make it a double sided screw set barrel spacer. Yes it's totally my fault, but now I have a stripped scale and a loose pocket clip. This knife and the Gerber propel downrange are the bane of all my knives.
Have one in s45. Cut through 3 blister packs and cut up a few boxes yesterday and blade is still shaving hair off my arm. So far so good!
Watch the youtube vids of S45VN blades shattering when torqued
@@FISHUNTREECOUNTRY a real dumb comment.

So refreshing to see someone real in a world of illusion. Thank you.
I love the, to the point, honest reviewing you do. Super informative. Keep it up!

@@richardkev3077 thereya go!
Great video thanks. They moved the lanyard hole so the deep pocket clip is in better location then the regular Para 3.
Haha love it! So true! Btw I love the color on those scales. Great choice. Might have to send my Sage 5 LW to them for some cerakote
You totally should! Thanks for watching!!!!!
That was fucking awesome! I love this channel and the honesty of your videos you rock. Thank you👍

Good medium use edc tool. The BD1N is not bad at all for the money.
Honestly stoked to try it!
Don't know which to buy this or a bugout ?

Soooooo, what do u think of the para 3 lw?
It’s awesome!

Hell yeah!
i bet you'd dig Spyderco's MAXAMET or Cruwear
Testing their Cru soon. The Maxamet was a bit chippy for me!
@@ericasedc once you get a few sharpenings in on Maxamet it's a whole different steel. You have to get rid of any abrasion fatigue from the production process down by the apex to give it a fair shot.
@@Outpost_76 100% agree
It's not hard to tell the real users from the pocket jewelers
9:40 hahaha
I think the air cutter club visualize they cut down a tree before they make a review. 20 reviews a month means theres an imaginary forest out there.
Haha this was great. I was about to ask you what the hell happened to your channel.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👌
😂😂 Cut!!!
TIME TO GET REAL AFTER THAT FILM CUT!🤣
You really have to watch out now because some of these reviews are sponsored by company's.
EXACTLY.
🤣🤣🤣 I have been disappointed by some positive reviews 😪
#useyourshit
You know it man!
I knew there was something wrong because you were talking shit about this knife in previous videos and then you love it now?
I mean I don't think I was necessarily talking shit hahaha but I get your point I think
Ok!!!
If you don’t give a shit…
I wil SUBSCRIBE!!!!!
