Details

The classic Guardian6 fixed blade from Bradford Knives is a full sized tactical field knife that is ready for anything you can throw at it. Just big enough for chopping the G6 has a generous finger choil that allow for enhanced control needed for finer cutting tasks and provides an added guard when deployed for martial use. This version comes with smooth, 3D Contoured, Black Micarta scales and a Sabre Ground, Nimbus finished, CPM-3V blade.

Brand new, direct from Bradford Knives, USA.

Blade: The blade is made of ultra tough, American CPM-3V tool steel, while still delivering edge retention comparable to CPM S35VN. Offering six inches of cutting edge, the G6 is executed with a strong sabre grind that balances cutting performance with strength. The blade is razor sharp right out of the box with the non-reflective Nimbus finish (Black DLC/Stonewash) that hides wear from use. The spear point profile is handy for slicing and piercing while jimping on the thumb rest and a forward choil make for a secure grip. The heft of the blade lends it to light chopping and batoning while still being capable of fine work.

Handle: Thick, 3D machined Black canvas Micarta handle scales are a comfortable and ergonomic, filling the hand nicely while providing a secure grip. They are secured to the tang via 416 stainless custom fasteners which are heat treated to 40 Rc and black oxide finished. The handle provides multiple grip options for tasks from chopping to fine work.

Sheath: Carries via a MOLLE compatible black nylon sheath with accessory pouch.

CPM-3V: is a high carbon alloy steel that extremely tough and has enough chromium to have some corrosion resistance. However, care is required to prevent corrosion. The edge can be ground thin as it is tough enough to support a fine edge. 3V delivers the highest level of toughness while maintaining good edge retention.
