SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Bradford Guardian 3.5 Forest Green Sheepsfoot is a compact fixed blade built to deliver exceptional performance with a touch of refined style. Proudly made in the USA, this knife combines premium materials, expert craftsmanship, and thoughtful design into a tool that’s as dependable as it is beautiful. Featuring a 3.5-inch sheepsfoot blade crafted from Bohler M390 stainless steel, it offers superior edge retention, corrosion resistance, and wear durability. M390 is a high-performance powder steel that’s trusted by professionals for its ability to handle hard use while maintaining a razor-sharp edge. The sheepsfoot profile provides a straight cutting edge and a rounded tip, making it ideal for controlled slicing and precision work. A rugged stonewash finish adds a utilitarian touch, helping to conceal scratches and wear from regular use.
With full tang construction and a .15-inch blade thickness, the Guardian 3.5 offers the strength and reliability serious users demand. Its 7.25-inch overall length and featherlight 3.8-ounce weight make it easy to carry and quick to maneuver, whether you’re working around camp, tackling everyday tasks, or adding it to your outdoor gear lineup. This knife is compact enough to carry comfortably yet robust enough to handle a wide range of cutting jobs with ease.
The standout feature of this model is its 3D microtextured forest green G-Wood handle. G-Wood is Bradford’s innovative handle material that combines the toughness and moisture resistance of G-10 fiberglass laminate with the natural beauty and warmth of stabilized wood. This hybrid material gives you the best of both worlds—the durability of a synthetic and the classic appeal of wood. Bradford’s 3D sculpting creates an ergonomic, contoured grip that fits comfortably in your hand, while the microtexturing ensures a secure hold in any condition. The rich forest green tone gives the knife a sophisticated, outdoors-inspired look that’s both practical and stylish. A lanyard hole at the base of the handle offers options for customizing your carry with a cord or retention strap.
Included with the Guardian 3.5 is an oiled brown leather sheath that blends timeless craftsmanship with everyday functionality. The sheath provides secure retention and convenient belt carry, complementing the knife’s rugged elegance.
As with every Bradford knife, the Guardian 3.5 Forest Green Sheepsfoot is proudly made in the USA and reflects a commitment to quality, innovation, and attention to detail. From the high-performance M390 blade to the beautifully sculpted G-Wood handle, this knife is designed for those who demand reliability and style in equal measure.
