Para 3 CruCarta?
Para 3 CruCarta?
Just throwing this out there. There's been 2 iteration of the Para 3 with Cruwear, but none in CruCarta. Why hasn't someone (*cough* DLT) ever ordered one up as a sprint? My 2 favorite patterns these days are the Native and the Caly but a close 3rd is the Para 3. Would I prefer the Para 3 in MagnaCarta, sure, but the CruCarta would be right up there.

Has a DLT purple Para 3 with CruWear been done? I am much more a fan of the G10 handles myself.
Because desolate places allow us to breathe. And most people don't even know they're out of breath.

Re: Para 3 CruCarta?
I have a K390 + Green Canvas Micarta Para 3. It’s a nice knife, but I carry a lot of other knives more. I’d be happier to see a Crucarta Military or Millie 2, I think.
I’d also be really stoked on DLT’s OD Green + DLC Cruwear combo being utilized for a Para 3 LW.

I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

Re: Para 3 CruCarta?
I got mine a couple of days ago.
It’s a beaut however the clip is not workable for me and I’ve had to order a LNW deep carry clip.
Para 3 LW in SPY27 got me into the Para 3s and I felt I wanted a non-LW version. I’m a fan of the wire pocket clip on the LW versions of the knife but I understand that in a beefier knife it might not work, deep carry is a must though because having a knife hanging out of my pocket most of the time is not appropriate.
