I own a standard G10 Para3 and the blue Bugout. I like both, they're very useful (for different purposes). Spyderco and Benchmade are my favorite brands. Though, I always find the Benchmade harder to sharpen because they seem to be incapable of shipping a symmetrical edge.

However, the MANIX 2 lightweight in S110V or Maxamet beats them all - after my pick of the Para 3 which got preempted... Thanks for a GREAT no time wasted review...

Excellent video. I chose them both. One advantage that the Spyderco Para 3 has is that if you really like the knife you can have it with upgraded steel. Both knives have many different options in handle materials. You can really make the knives your own.

@frogturtle Жыл бұрын
had a PM2 and didn’t like how food stuck to the blade since it’s so tall. never had that issue with the bugout, such a great slicer. also the bugout has worse ergos in specific grips, but I find the generic shape preferable for switching between grips and manipulating the knife in general. I also worry about chipping the tip on PM-style spydercos. and the bugout rides in the pocket like no other knife can. I do prefer the thumb hole over thumb stud, I’ll give that one to spyderco. I will say it’s probably worth upgrading to the M390 bugout. superior materials and the handle is redesigned with better ergos. also it looks awesome. I’ll prob pick up a para 3 LW too at some point because I do still love spyderco and my PM2 is just a bit too big for edc.
@Freedom899844 жыл бұрын
Just take the para 3 s110v Not heavyweight and very solid, with steel that keeps his edge for a long period of time. The bugout seems like a toy compared to the para 3. But it’s not. It’s also a great choice for edc.

They’re both great knives from great companies. I have a lot of Benchmade knives but for me the Para 3 LW is a huge win over the bugout…probably compares better to the mini bugout, now that it exists. The steel on the bugout is a little better than the Para 3 LW, but they have other steel options for the Para 3 LW which don’t change the price all that much. I have the Spy 27 steel and it holds an edge just as well as any of my S30v knives. The wire pocket clip on the Para 3 LW is excellent and I personally like it much better than the short deep carry clip of the bugout. Some people complain about the shape of the Spyderco leaf blades, but the part that sticks up is in the crease of my pocket away from my hand so I don’t really see how it’s an issue.

Both the Benchmade and Spyderco knives are the best quality on the market. You can’t go wrong with either. After watching this comparison, I decided to purchase the Para 3, but with S110V blade steel with G-10 scales. The blade steel availability is the difference between the two designs. Building material matters, but with a corresponding price increase for more premium blade steals and scales.

Great video! I like my Delica but it's shiny, hard to close one-handed, and the clip is not deep carry. This P3 Lightweight seems to check all the boxes for me as far as a Delica substitute. Seems like a worthy contender to my Bugout that has monopolizing ALL of my pocket time. I absolutely LOVE that this P3LW does not have a sharpening choil! I think the industry/manufacturers need to really take a hard look at the definition of "Deep Carry". These are "deepish" carry. IMO, the clip needs to extend past the butt of the knife (like the Kershaw Fatback) in order for it to be called Deep Carry. I have heard people rave about wire clips. Why do you think people love them over other more conventional clips?

I’ll mirror what cueball said…the wire clip just has to be experienced to understand…hard to go back once you’ve used it. Personally it’s my go to option on the Spyderco’s. I understand what you mean about “deep carry” but sometimes a knife goes too far in the pocket to make retrieval easy…I feel like the Para 3 LW is deep enough…I’ve never had anyone call me out for carrying a knife (another benefit of the wire clip…does not scream pocket knife clip immediately).

Handle goes to Para3, Lock goes to Bugout, opener goes to Spyderco (sorry Benchmade), Clip goes to Para3, steel goes to Benchmade, Price points are now a LOT closer, I would like to know if both use washers, ball bearings, or nothing. It is a very tough call, but in the end, you cut with the blade, and the steel advantage gives it to the bugout I think. I'm a big fanboy of both companies.
