Parata SecondsThe Parata is quite a unique knife in terms of both shape and mechanics.

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.

More Than Just a Wipe – A Small Miracle in a Plastic Pack
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 1)
Let me take you back to a Tuesday night, 11:43 PM. I was exhausted. I had just finished another long day juggling work, a messy kitchen, a toddler who refuses to sleep unless I sing “The Wheels on the Bus” four times, and a dog that mysteriously smells like pickles. I stumbled into the bathroom, glanced at my reflection in the mirror, and winced. Smudged eyeliner. Patchy foundation. That faint trace of mascara that somehow survived an entire day, a meltdown, and an unexpected rainstorm. I had zero energy left. The thought of going through my full skincare routine felt like climbing a mountain. But then I remembered the Amazon Basics Makeup Remover Wipes sitting under my sink. I pulled one out and noticed right away how soft and thick the wipe was—not papery or overly soaked like others I’ve used. It felt gentle. Almost comforting. I held it against my face for a few seconds and, without rubbing, it just… did its job. Mascara? Gone. Eyeliner? Gently wiped away. Foundation, oil, and even the invisible layer of "today was too much"? All off, effortlessly. What surprised me even more was how hydrated and fresh my face felt afterward. No tightness, no weird film, no dry patches. Just clean, calm skin. And the best part? Absolutely no scent. As someone with sensitive skin and a nose that notices everything, I deeply appreciate the fragrance-free formula. It’s rare to find a product that truly feels like it respects your skin instead of overpowering it. Since that night, these wipes have earned a permanent spot in my routine. Not just for makeup removal either. I’ve used them on groggy mornings when I don’t want to splash cold water on my face, after a sweaty walk, or to fix smudged eyeliner when I’m in a rush. They’ve even come with me on road trips and tucked inside my hospital bag when I gave birth. Each resealable pack keeps the wipes moist and fresh, and the fact that they're plant-based with FSC-certified fibers? That made me feel even better about my nightly ritual. And six packs? That’s months of clean, makeup-free evenings without ever needing to reorder. Sometimes it’s the small things that save the day. For me, it was a simple, fragrance-free wipe that helped me feel human again after the chaos. And I’ll keep buying them because they never let me down.

Great makeup wipes, noticed a tiny bit of irritation.
Scent: Hydrating, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
These makeup wipes are great! They easily get off my makeup whether it be gel based liners, lipstick, mascara, eyeliner or waterproof makeup. I find one wipe is more than absorbent enough to take off all my makeup and I often use the rest to clean off my brushes; although I don’t usually wear a full face, just a mixture blush, lips, brows, highlighter, and always eyes. I find that the cloth is nonabrasive. The only issues I have with it is that the packaging is impossible to stay closed so I bet that may dry out the wipes over time. I also find that especially around my eyes I see redness and dryness after wiping and it needs a couple of wipes to get everything out of my lashes. The redness goes away after a couple minutes, but as someone with sensitive skin I get worried especially as I have had other sensitive makeup wipes not have this issue. Luckily I haven’t broke out, haven’t had lasting dryness, or issues from this product. Works well!

Fragrance-Free & Works So Well!
Scent: Formulated without Fragrance, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2), Scent: Formulated without Fragrance, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
These are great for the price! I only use makeup removers that are fragrance-free, so I really appreciate that about these. My face feels clean and refreshed after using them. I usually only need 1–2 wipes per night along with my face wash, so they feel pretty durable to me. I also have sensitive skin, and even some fragrance-free wipes can irritate it, but these don’t seem to cause any irritation at all so I guess the ingredients are just right for me. They remove my makeup really easily!

Soft and efficient
Scent: Night Calming, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2), Scent: Night Calming, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
Love these! Bought the night calming ones and honestly the're the best ones I've ever tried. I have sensitive skin and other "sensitive skin ones" leave my skin burning and red. But these are extremely soft, leaves my skin so soft and moist. And a super plus, gets rid of my waterproof mascara in one wipe!

just ok
Scent: Formulated without Fragrance, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
These are ok but have to really work to get off makeup, plus they are an off white, pale yellow color that makes them look stained.
