Bradford Guardian3.5 3D G-WOOD Micro Texture Sabre Ground Stonewashed M390

You asked for it. You got it. This is the brand new Guardian3.5 fixed blade from Bradford Knives in 3D contoured, G-WOOD Micro Texture 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. This one is delivered with a worn-in Stonewashed finish that hides the wear and tear of use over time. 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 G-WOOD handle scales are micro-textured for a sure grip that isn't overly aggressive delivering a blend of traction and comfort. 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 tumble 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.
