Bradford Guardian3.5 3D Carbon Fiber Sabre Ground Nimbus DLC M390

You asked for it. You got it. This is the brand new Guardian3.5 fixed blade from Bradford Knives in 3D contoured Carbon Fiber with a Sabre Ground premium M390 blade steel. The 3.5 hits that in-between sweet spot many have been looking for. Not too small, and not too big. It features a newly redesigned finger choil/guard and rounded handle that feels like it was made for your palm.

The Blade: Full tang construction of super edge-retaining M390 steel is proven to be one of the highest performing stainless steels on the market today. It's double temper and cryo treated for optimum performance. Bradford takes EDC fixed blades to a whole new premium level. Slightly over three inches of hair shaving cutting edge to work with with a strong sabre grind to stand up to the toughest tasks. A tumbled black DLC or 'Nimbus' finish is tough as nails and discreet, adding corrosion resistance and providing a rugged, wear-hiding finish. The modified spear point profile is handy for slicing and piercing. Jimping on the G3.5 thumb rest has moved forward for a more natural feel pairing well with the guard for a fine, secure grip.

The Handle: Thick removable/interchangeable Carbon Fiber handle scales are smooth and elegant providing optimal comfort while the ergonomic design delivers security in-hand. The egg-shaped handle contours feel great in a forward or reverse grip. They are secured to the tang via 416 stainless custom fasteners heat treated to 40 Rc and dark finished.

The brown leather sheath with insert provided completes the package as an awesome horizontal carry system. A Guardian3.5 from Bradford will fill the need for a quality USA built everyday carry fixed blade and then some.
