The Bradford Guardian 3.5 XL takes the proven Guardian platform and stretches it into a larger, hard-working fixed blade built for demanding outdoor use. Its 4-inch drop point blade is crafted from premium MagnaCut stainless tool steel, delivering an impressive combination of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The rugged stonewash finish gives the blade a durable, work-ready appearance that’s right at home in the field.
A 3D-textured Chocolate Brown Richlite handle provides a secure, comfortable grip with plenty of texture for confident handling. The full-tang construction runs through the handle, giving the Guardian 3.5 XL the strength and durability expected from a serious fixed blade while keeping the design clean and practical.
Measuring 8.25 inches overall and weighing only 4.7 ounces, the Guardian 3.5 XL offers plenty of cutting capability without unnecessary bulk. Whether it’s riding on your belt during a backcountry trek, accompanying you around camp, or handling everyday outdoor chores, its lightweight design makes it easy to carry and ready for work.
The included leather sheath gives the knife a classic carry solution while keeping it protected and accessible. Proudly made in the USA, the Guardian 3.5 XL brings together premium MagnaCut steel, rugged full-tang construction, and distinctive Richlite scales in a refined American-made package.
