Bradford Guardian3 Fixed Blade Knife Nimbus Magnacut/Sheepsfoot Grind/OD Green Burlap BRAD3445

The Bradford Guardian3 is a no-nonsense fixed blade that blends everyday performance with refined materials. At just 6.75" overall, it delivers compact utility without sacrificing strength or control. The 3" Sheepsfoot blade is crafted from premium CPM Magnacut stainless tool steel, heat-treated for toughness and edge retention, and finished in Bradford’s signature Nimbus finish—a smoky, tumbled coating that shrugs off wear and looks better with time. The sheepsfoot grind gives you excellent tip control and added safety during close, detail-heavy tasks, making it just as useful around the shop as it is in the field.

This full tang knife is fitted with 3D-sculpted OD Green Burlap Micarta handles that offer a natural, textured grip even in wet or gloved conditions. Subtle contours lock the hand in place, while custom hardware provides a secure, clean finish. It rides comfortably in a premium brown leather sheath with a stitched belt loop, making it easy to carry all day whether you’re on the trail, under the hood, or at the workbench.

Every Guardian3 is proudly made in the USA with precision fit and finish from tip to tang. Bradford Knives has earned its reputation for rugged fixed blades that work as hard as you do—and this one is no exception.
