Southpaw sharpened. A true left-handed Paramilitary 2 at last.

For years, left-handed users adapted to the Paramilitary 2—now Spyderco returns the favor. This purpose-built left-handed variant mirrors the beloved original but re-engineers the Compression Lock for genuine left-hand use. No more adapting—this one is built for the left hand from the start.

With a premium CPM S45VN full-flat-ground blade, black G-10 scales, and all the slicing power you’d expect, this model delivers the same elite functionality—with a twist tailored for southpaws. An oversized Round Hole™, open-backed construction, and four-position hourglass clip complete a left-handed folder without compromise. It’s every bit the PM2, now fully reversed and ready for southpaws.
