Digging that Spydie Flick! We are going to have to incorporate the new leaf cut test in some future videos :).

[@TalonSei]

😂😂 improvising at its finest 👍🏻

[@TheColincooling]

Don’t forget to shave stick down some also.

[@kristinadyer9360]

You guys really need to get together and do some videos. Love both Talon's channel and the Blade HQ channel, my go to channels for gear/knife reviews. Keep up the good work.

[@kdhershb]

Lets not forget Blade HQ had a hell of a deal on the PM 3 and Delica last week! I purchased.

[@CapFlipGaming]

@@kdhershb how much was it?

[@TheHonarable1]

Almost 4 yrs later and the Para 3 is still my fav EDC. The thing is pretty much perfect after a clip upgrade imo.

[@wrjames38]

Finally a guy who doesn't use word fillers , talks well, and keeps it short and sweet! Never seen your videos...but I like the 5 minute format. Good job.

[@TalonSei]

Welcome to the channel 👊🏻

[@sarahdavis3404]

Yes I agree. People need short videos when they're comparing a million different knives. I dont got time to watch 10 to 15minute videos on each knife im interested in.

[@shtzweak]

10 years ago: “it even comes with an s30v blade!” Now: “eh, it comes with an s30v blade, that’s alright I guess....”

[@TheCaptain1997]

I really like this five minute Friday idea. Great job as always brotha

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Mmmmm, need an OD version to match my OD PM2...

[@TalonSei]

We can be twins 👯‍♂️

[@austincrabtree4409]

This makes my inner KZbin nerd very happy

[@phil8288]

I didn’t even know they made them in OD

[@diggiediggiehole7247]

Really like the 5 minute Friday. Very informative without dragging on

[@dingmingzou9866]

I've been carrying a blacked out PM2 for two years, loved it so much.

[@georgerafa5041]

I have the exact same PM3. I replaced the factory clip with a MXG clip. I carry it every damn day!

[@Gatorsdad]

lost my first para 3 at the beach a week ago bought it July of 2018. ended up buying a new on today. the new ones come with s45vn steel instead of the s30v. a perfect edc knife.

[@14ederan]

I like the 5 minute format. I agree that long videos aren’t always necessary for knives and lights.

[@weedsmith9317]

Love the switch ups you do in your vids! Very user friendly. It opens up the spectrum for a broad audience

[@weedsmith9317]

My question is, did you winterize your Endurfo yet lol its getting cold here in NY

[@marcusporter7299]

Great! Love it! Five min Friday, fantastic idea Talon. Also, I have always appreciated all the info you throw in all your products in all your vids! Thanks again!

[@TalonSei]

Thanks for watching Marcus 👊🏻

[@mattdrives4757]

Digging the gold lettering on their blacked out models. Gives it a Smokey and the Bandit look!

[@warmachine_1396]

@6:06 when you are talking about a "beater" knife. Spyderco Tenacious. Can't beat it for the money.

[@dantem5228]

Byrd Raven 2... cough cough

[@jtoth1995]

Spyderco Cat is an excellent option too! American BD1 steel, actual deep carry pocket clip, G10 grips with finger choil, $55.

[@kevinthomas7478]

@@jtoth1995 The Cat is actually what I carry to work due to blade length restrictions. Great knife.

[@jasonsanders1406]

I like the video and shorter time. Usually watch on my phone but put the video up on my HD tv and was such a good picture. Love the autumn background!

[@davidsours4760]

My EDC is a Spyderco Delica 4 and I like it very much. Talon, how about a five minute video on how you sharpen your Spyderco? Do you use the Spyderco sharpener, or a stone, or what?

[@theplasticdesert2408]

Bonus points for wearing an Aussie shirt ❤️

[@notchipotle]

What I like about your video is the tone, it's warm, easy on the eyes

[@marvsekol3484]

Like the NEW 5 minute Friday's video idea! What a great knife to do your first one with.......SPYDERCO!

[@JLO_ZL1]

Great idea. So many times I look things up and would enjoy just a short quick video.

[@tonyhoodlass1846]

Great value for an American made Spyderco, compression lock as well

[@glassjar7814]

Just left Cabela’s with a para 3. Once I get a deep carry clip it’ll be replacing my mini grip for edc

[@myvenusinuranus]

my two all time favorite knives

[@darkriverfarmer699]

I just bought the para 2 on bladehq. After some time and after i get the money, i have one other knife to buy then the para 3. Super excited.

[@Joshuamorris256]

The spyderco para 3 is also one of my favorite knives. I think I need a para 2 although I love it, it's a little small. Has always got the job done though. For smaller knives my favorite is the mini Adamas. Solid as a tank perfect blade centering and action. It could just be because It's my newest addition. I got say my para 3 lightweight with the spy27 blade is still one of my favorites. I went for the lightweight not because its light. Weight doesn't really bother me much, shit I carry my 275 auto Adamas quite a bit. What sold me on the para3 lightweight was the steel. I like to try new and innovative things. The spy 27 and the deep carry wire clip are awesome. The blue handles are pretty great as well. I have lots of knives and some I can part with. Not the para 3. I will never get rid of it and I plan on giving to my son for his first real knife. The spydy hole shape, and ergonomics are hard to beat, it becomes an extension to your hand. Para 3 for life!

[@TheChromaDrone]

I'm super late to the game but I just bought my first Spyderco's. Para 3, Paramilitary 2, and YoJimbo.All black blades and G-10 handles. Couldn't choose, so I bought all three. LOL!

[@FINEST-uz9ek]

Just received this exact knife today! And it’s a great EDC the action is a little stiff out of the box but it is breaking in quickly .

[@MrRUSSWILL]

Yeah dude!! I got my pm3 in October added to my edc..totally hooked!! Diggin the new 5 min Friday format! Ps I added the fang from wise men company and the deep clip from Casey Lynch outta control!

[@JoshHildebrand]

Great new format and I’ve been curious about the Para 3. Keep it up man!

[@jacobjohnson3634]

OMG it's like if Peter McKinnon went tactical 😂 love it😂😂 and love the style

[@derek750]

Five min Friday=Fire 🤙

[@Tonycrossfit]

I just bought a bench made mini griptilian and I’m thinking about buying the para 3. Thanks for the video 👍.

[@Tainomontana]

Good day folks TGIF! Have a great day & weekend

[@AlphaRomeoOneFive]

Thanks, you as well!

[@dwayneg8486]

I love my Delica 4. Cheaper knife but still a good blade. Would definitely like to have this one though.

[@robinjones159]

Very nice knife. And will love 5 minute Fridays!

[@joeyfrederick4247]

Great content your the reason why I went out and bought a spyderco knife

[@MrSabram07]

Love my PM3

[@prometheusred6919]

Great video thanks. Love the five minute Fridays idea.

[@martylucas8557]

Same here Talon, like both Spyderco Paramilitary 2/3 and 5 minute Friday’s. Bet it’s nice to be back home!

[@richardelizondo1]

got me a Spyderco Police ....and like it a lot....the para 3 ....is perfect for smaller and thiner....

[@troy9er]

Nice, I have also been a big fan of Spyderco for many years. They make awesome knifes. The 5 minute videos are a cool idea, however I’ll watch longer Video’s as well.

[@leahcarr6064]

Really like the concept for 5 min Friday!

[@vudoodaddie]

Spyderco rocks! I have the Manix 2 Lightweight and it is my favorite knife.

[@mikeangelastro7648]

I like the 5-minute Fridays

[@birdlaw1019]

The Para 3 is also my favourite EDC! I have a blacked out s30v, rex-45 and a 52100 in the mail...it's a sickness. My one criticism is the pocket clip, it carries way too high. The Lynch clip or the MXG is a must purchase if you want to carry this knife daily.

[@drc9460]

Damn you Sei, I now need to buy one.

[@chrisblazer4575]

DRC Why does everything Talon review make me want one? If it wasn’t for my wife I’d be broke😂

[@menacewithaknife4045]

Nice vid, being left handed I love my pm2 LH and hopefully they will make a left hand version of the para 3. Thanks for sharing 🐱

[@EagleZtaloN]

That was great man. I like that you have all the specs and a link for us in the description.

[@TalonSei]

I figured that would make it easy for everyone 👍🏻

[@tony39780]

Just got mine today! Love it such a good looking knife!! And home made here in my beautiful colorado!!

[@jerseythedog]

This knife is the first pick! It will work harder than you do.

Best knife ever ever

[@hobar8031]

Bcoz of you i start loving spyderco.. lol now im carrying para 2 or 3 and have some delica 4 etc etc.. thanks for the reviews bro!

[@lagottooperator4336]

EDC a Para3 for going on 5 months now, in fact its in my pocket right now as I'm watching. I had to take it out to flick it a few times though while watching :) Upgraded from a Delica4 which I still carry sometimes as a backup or if I need an ultralight EDC option. Para3 is a definitely a tough EDC option for a wide range of tasks. Your black/black Para3 looks great - that color combo was my 1st choice but at the time I purchased mine the black/black Para3 was $25 more than I paid for my Digicam G10/black DLC blade Para3. I suggest a future "5 minute Friday" on the Paramilitary 2 or the Yojimbo2. Great video - short and to the point!

[@archiebunker3654]

Excellent review. Much appreciated and love the format.

[@TalonSei]

Thanks Archie 🤙🏻

[@jimharris8860]

I have both a PM2 and a Tenacious with the combo edge in all black. Tenacious is a cheap knife but works well and versatile with the two edges. I carry that mostly because of the all black finish. I will have to check out the PM3. Thanks for the vid!

[@NghiaHoang-nt4ib]

that's a quality spydie flick

[@tomharvey704]

Had no clue what you reference to EDC meant...after that small hurdle I agree the 3 is good knife. I use mine for field dressing game I’ll have to try it on letters and boxes...

[@Mast3rHelm3t]

you need a Lynch Northwest Spyderco Para 3 Ti Pocket Clip . BladeHQ has them in now.

[@shln74]

simple & nice presentation..I chose pm3

[@drakesummers9887]

I love the knife reviews

[@6pistons]

I have the Para 3 LW and it is a great knife.

[@adamdavis1067]

Keep this up. Great to see quick reviews.

[@eric431]

Great video. I like the five minute deal. Straight to the point.

[@frank1982norm]

Both are great knives. I carry the same PM 2, but I leave mine in the factory configuration, tip down, as I find it’ll carry a little deeper and it feels more ergonomic. It’s the only knife I carry that way.

[@TalonSei]

It actually comes right hand tip up from the factory

[@frank1982norm]

My PM2 absolutely came tip down from factory.

[@TalonSei]

Ahh thought you were speaking about the 3

[@dakotawhitson3263]

Thank you for making this series!

[@Rickndanger84]

Smoothest knives ever (pm2/3). Great steel. To thin of a blade for my comfort.

[@weichao1333]

Love your new series Sei! Thanks

[@steveh567]

Absolutely loving that size! ❤️

[@williampollock3340]

Hey Talon, because of this review I went online (Blade HQ) and got the Spyderco Para3, I got it in the mail yesterday and I feel in love with it. I usually lean towards Kershaw but thought I break out of that and go for this. This review was great!! and helpful.

[@spencermorris7027]

I'm excited for the new series! Love your product reviews

[@CFairNH]

Great idea!! Well executed!! Keep them coming!!

[@dannyksmith304]

I have just recently purchased a Para 3 and I like it a lot. But, my favorite knife of all time is the Delica 4 and for me, the FRN scale material feels better than the G10. I own two Delica 4 Spyderco's one of them is the ZDP-189. Do away with the music.

[@chinnoxl7783]

Definitely gonna look into this one!! Thanks Talon

[@thebalrock9890]

FMF is a great idea bro But don't get me wrong I love the longer vids. Thx for all that u do brotha 🙌 Wonder what's comin next Friday 🤔

[@vitodiamico910]

Under 5 mins, good call great content! Thanks Talon.👍🏽

[@BTeezy82]

5min friday fuck yea! Sunday gunday....man we want something everyday lol. Tech talk tuesday?

Yeaaahh. I really like the concept of this series. Hope you keep it up

[@BMXfreak92]

Love the format idea!

[@benjaminclark4477]

Call me weird, but I don't like a lanyard tube instead of an extra bolt assembly at the end of the handle. It was honestly one of the reasons I bought my Yojimbo2.

[@Hooligan1646]

I definitely dig the five minute Friday idea. Short, sweet, to the point and an awesome way to get more content out for all us "thirsty thots". Awesome as always sir.

[@TalonSei]

Thirsty thots 😂😂😂

Good shit !!I like the info on the knife and now I want one 😁I also enjoy the longer videos . I'm hooked thanks!!!

[@bigwoodsoutdoors55]

I have a para 3 in satin with the digital camo scales by far one of my go to EDC knives.... great video Talon I’m digging the 5 min Friday’s

[@TurboGlenn]

Love this knife. Got it after PM2, Delica damascus, Dragonfly 2 and Para 3 clearly wins it for me cus of size and "sexiness"

[@diegoarrojo335]

Awesome, keep doing this 5 minutes videos!!!

[@pcxdrone]

Well spoken and down to earth, what made you decide on the DLC?

[@Herwiggle]

Wish they would make para 3 tanto

[@richard66754]

I started stropping my knives between actual sharpening. Doing this makes the edge last a long time (for me anyways).

[@linkstale]

The style of this video is quite nice 🧐

[@user-qp6vg9ho8u]

In the UK it’s only legal under 3 inches but the blade isn’t allowed to lock

[@gregbaca6164]

I have one myself. Great knife 👍🏽

[@ERRORFACE1]

Military all day every day..... U should try it. Great review btw

[@navarrov]

I really like the para3, but the clip digs into my hand in an uncomfortable way when getting a good grip on the knife. Not sure if that is a design flaw, but it's my only drawback

[@StraitClownin909]

Dude you're the 3rd person to mention that. I was worried about that too. I really like the size of the para3 but I think I'm going to go with the para2. It carries deeper and the clip seems to be in the right spot.

[@JoesAverageAdventure]

Solid! This will be a nice series

[@B_4WTRiBE]

Been a sub since you started. You always got the fire content that everyone actually gives a shit about lol. Keep it up bro! Great review on the para 3. Blade length is good for me being from Cali that is. That blacked out para3 is the one I have.

[@michaelhedgepeth5106]

still gave a thumbs up, but My edc is a CRKT, M-16 for size really. I have No problem with your choose of edc, and by the way...the strait edge is a MUST with me also!
