Bradford Knives Guardian 3.5 3D OD Green Micarta 3.5in Elmax Stonewashed Drop Point BRAD3193

The Bradford Knives Guardian 3.5 is a compact yet highly capable fixed blade built for everyday carry and extended field use. Crafted in the USA, this knife retains the proven blade profile of the Guardian 3 while incorporating thoughtful refinements for enhanced comfort and control. Its 3.5-inch drop point blade is made from premium ELMAX steel, a high-performance alloy known for exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. A rugged stonewash finish minimizes glare and helps conceal wear from heavy use.

Designed for a secure grip in any environment, the Guardian 3.5 features a full tang construction with an extended OD green Micarta handle. Measuring 7.25 inches overall, the handle is now slightly longer and more symmetrical than its predecessor, offering a more balanced feel in hand. The ergonomic shape ensures comfort for prolonged use, whether barehanded or with gloves, while a finger guard and pronounced choil provide extra protection against accidental slips. The integrated lanyard hole at the base adds versatility for customization and carry options.

Every Guardian 3.5 comes with Bradford’s G3 Series right-hand horizontal leather sheath, designed for front cross-draw carry. Made from high-quality oiled brown leather, the sheath’s fold-over design ensures a secure fit while allowing a smooth draw. The belt loop accommodates up to 1.5-inch-wide belts, keeping the knife stable and accessible during movement. Compact and discreet, the sheath makes the Guardian 3.5 an excellent choice for those who need a reliable fixed blade that can be comfortably carried all day without drawing unwanted attention.

Whether for daily cutting tasks, backcountry adventures, or professional fieldwork, the Guardian 3.5 is built to perform. Its durable materials, thoughtful design, and American craftsmanship make it a trusted tool for those who demand reliability in a compact package.
