Parata SecondsThe Parata is quite a unique knife in terms of both shape and mechanics. Designed by automotive engineer Paul Alexander (one of our favorite Spyderco collaborators), it features an unusually rounded blade and the unique (patented) Stop Lock. Currently, it is the only model ever made with this lock, but there are new prototypes in the works featuring a new variant of it. This lock is cool for a few reasons.

The Parata is quite a unique knife in terms of both shape and mechanics. Designed by automotive engineer Paul Alexander (one of our favorite Spyderco collaborators), it features an unusually rounded blade and the unique (patented) Stop Lock. Currently, it is the only model ever made with this lock, but there are new prototypes in the works featuring a new variant of it. This lock is cool for a few reasons. From my observation of it, it's something like a cross between the back lock, and crossbar ("Benchmade Axis") lock. The space required for it is surprisingly small - the majority of the handle of the Parata is actually just G10 with no liners which makes it surprisingly light for its size. The Stop Lock also is quite easy to operate with one hand ambidextrously without risk of cutting oneself. It's also not too difficult to dis/reassemble and maintain, but be careful while doing it. Also note that the thumb studs screw off with a torx bit, which was not mentioned in the original tutorial I used when I disassembled mine. 

 

These are long discontinued by Spyderco but still hold a special place among its fans, especially people who love it as a skinning knife. For more detail, the Spyderco description is below.

 

Meaning "prepared" or "ready" in Latin, the Parata is a dramatically styled folding knife that delivers incredible performance in a refreshingly unorthodox package. Its stunning blade is crafted from VG-10 stainless steel and features a pronounced belly, a high flat grind, and a broad profile that together give it exceptional edge geometry and cutting performance. Its unique shape also creates a highly functional integral guard that protects the user’s hand while complementing the knife’s refined ergonomics. To ensure swift, positive, one-handed opening with either hand, the blade includes a fully accessible Trademark Round Hole™.

The Parata’s blade is linked to a sleek, linerless G-10 handle with Spyderco’s patented Stop Lock™ -- a high-strength, extremely user friendly lock mechanism that releases by lifting a toggle on the spine of the handle. Introduced for the first time in this knife, the Stop Lock is amazingly compact and offers smooth, ambidextrous operation. Its mechanism is housed between textured G-10 scales that are gracefully curved for a secure grip and joined by stainless steel standoffs to create a lightweight, easy-to-clean, open-backed construction style.

To balance discreet carry and instant access, the Parata’s handle includes a reversible deep-pocket wire clip that supports left or right-side tip-up carry and a lined lanyard hole for the easy attachment of fobs and lanyards. These features complement the knife’s symmetrical design to make all aspects of its carry and operation completely ambidextrous.

The Parata is a remarkably refined folding knife that reflects the impressive talents of its designer, Paul Alexander, and proudly introduces Spyderco’s latest innovation in lock technology.

 

Aside from the ID sticker stain, scuffs, and minor scratches, I'm not sure what's wrong with these.

A game-changer for oily and combo skin!
Okay, I did not expect to love this toner as much as I do but wow, it completely changed my skin game! The jelly texture feels super luxe and refreshing, and it instantly calms my skin while keeping oil under control all day. My pores look smoother, my skin feels hydrated but not greasy, and it gives that fresh, healthy glow we all want. I’ve been using it morning and night and my complexion has never looked more even. If you have combo or oily skin, this one’s a total gem.

Gentle, Effective Face Cleanser That Leaves Skin Feeling Fresh
Size: 4.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this face cleanser for a few weeks, and I’m really happy with the results. It’s gentle on my skin but still does a great job removing dirt, oil, and makeup without leaving any residue or dryness. My skin feels clean, soft, and refreshed after every wash. The formula lathers nicely and rinses off easily, which makes the whole cleansing routine feel like a treat. I also appreciate that it doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin or cause redness, which some cleansers tend to do. Plus, the subtle scent is pleasant but not overpowering. Overall, this face cleanser strikes a perfect balance between deep cleansing and moisturizing. It’s become a staple in my skincare routine, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable daily cleanser.

Acné saver !!!
Size: 4.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use this product twice a day. I love how it helps keep my skin clear while also improving the blemishes currently there. Lathers well under water and doesn’t have a sticky after feeling. I think it works great especially with how lightweight is is.

Effective for blemish-prone skin without over drying
Size: 4.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have skin that is both sensitive and oily/blemish prone, and I have found this to be very effective without being irritating or over drying. The consistency is a little syrupy which is very helpful in the shower or when dispensing onto wet hands at the sink. I feel like a lot less ends up wasted. More slippery gels can be harder to apply or even dispense since they have a tendency to well, slip off the hand and down the drain before making it to the skin. A little goes a long way and (in conjunction with a good moisturizer!) it seems to help loosen black heads and sebum plugs better than a lot of other products I have tried. It does take a little more effort to rinse it off thoroughly, but that also means it can work well in lieu of a separate shaving gel, which I appreciate. I like the mild citrusy scent. I smell it while I am using it but it doesn’t linger overly after being rinsed off. I used that generic yellow salicylic acid cleanser for a long time and this is much nicer without being overly pricey. I would say it compares very favorably with other more high end cleansers I have tried in terms of quality and effectiveness, so it is a pretty good value.
