The Spyderco Military was a smash hit when it was released, bringing the first powder steel to production knives (CPM 440V—gosh, we've come a long way), as well as a big, tactical design people were craving. The pocket knife's design inspired the ParaMilitary, and eventually the ParaMilitary 2 and the Para 3, but we never got a Military 2—until now. The Military 2 is a clear example of Spyderco's commitment to Constant Quality Improvement. Evolving with the times, Spyderco equipped the Military 2 with the increasingly popular Compression Lock. Not only does this make the knife safer to close, but gives it a jolt of much-needed strength to support its four-inch blade. Spyderco kept everything you love about the Military and made it even better!
