  • Today, we'll take apart a knife that's very interestingly made, with a shockingly good action, the Spyderco Para3 Lightweight.
    Here's Eric Glesser's Breakdown Video: • Spyderco Para 3 Lightw...

    I really think that this one of the best edc knives. It has the lightness of a delica with the lock and bladestock of a para3.

    I thought the other video on the pm3 was on the lightweight and learnt this is the one I should be watching as I'll be putting back together my first spyderco similar and I'm just stoked that I'm going to be in the big kids club finally! As my friend says "Every knife collector needs a Spyderco" and we'll I'm just so so grateful towards this wonderful community for sure! Nothing better in my humble opinion! Watching from the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island in Canada thanks for sharing! Cheers, Kimmers and Jerbs #22ADAY I'll never quit quitting 👍🏻🇺🇸🔥🔪🔥🇨🇦👍🏻

    At the end of all things, the two things that will bring Nick the most satisfaction: the improvement of Spyderco and the popularity of the name "pocket pecker."

    I kinda think you should steal the thumbnail idea from the Spyderco breakdown videos. I like how they use a picture from the middle of the disassembly with all the parts and tools laid out; it looks really nice and gets the point across well. It would also help to set apart the thumbnail from your review videos now that they both use the same background.

      I agree. That is why I always carry the Cold Steel XL Espada in my pocket. and at nearly 16 oz, I can even use it as a make shift hammer. Bonus, it take ages to cut through a whole pig with a super light weight knife with a just under 3 inch blade, so it clearly only a loser would pick it against a true beast of a knife. Go Cold Steel!

      I own 2 CS knives. A Limited edition espada w/coyote tan handle scales and a Lynn Thompson signature Voyager with green handle. they Are both made of high end stainless steel and would make excellent self defense weapons But honestly just a little large to make good edc knives and 2. Even before CS sold out and went out fo business they were worth a lot of money. Now I see on eBay they are selling for $300-$700 apiece so no way I am going to carry them now. Just ordered my first Spyderco. Something Edc that I will actually use and abuse like my Tops Longhorn bowie or esse 3.
