Bradford Knives Guardian 3.5 Forest Green 3.5in Plain Stonewash Tanto BRAD3432

The Bradford Guardian 3.5 Forest Green is a compact fixed blade designed for those who demand top-tier performance in a sleek, versatile package. This American-made knife brings together premium materials, precision craftsmanship, and a striking aesthetic that feels at home in the field or on your belt. With a 3.5-inch tanto blade crafted from Elmax powder steel, it delivers exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. Elmax is a favorite among professionals for its ability to handle hard use without chipping or dulling prematurely. The tanto blade profile provides a reinforced tip for piercing tasks and a straight cutting edge that excels at controlled slicing. Finished with a stonewash treatment, the blade offers a rugged, low-profile look that helps conceal scratches from daily use.

Built with full tang construction and a .15-inch blade thickness, the Guardian 3.5 has the strength to handle demanding tasks without compromising its light, compact form. At 7.25 inches overall and weighing just 6.3 ounces, it’s easy to carry and quick to deploy, making it a reliable companion for outdoor adventures, utility work, and more.

The 3D microtextured forest green G-Wood handle sets this model apart. G-Wood is Bradford’s innovative handle material that combines the strength and moisture resistance of G-10 fiberglass laminate with the warmth and natural beauty of stabilized wood. This fusion creates a handle that performs like a synthetic in wet or extreme conditions but offers the aesthetic appeal and feel of wood in hand. The 3D contouring and microtexturing provide a secure, ergonomic grip that feels comfortable during extended use. The rich forest green tone gives the knife a refined, outdoorsy look while remaining highly practical. A lanyard hole at the base of the handle allows for easy customization with a cord or lanyard for added retention.

The Guardian 3.5 Forest Green comes paired with an oiled brown leather sheath that complements the knife’s classic-meets-modern style. The sheath holds the knife snugly and offers reliable belt carry while adding a traditional touch to this capable tool.

Proudly made in the USA, this Bradford Guardian 3.5 reflects the brand’s dedication to quality, functionality, and design. Every detail, from the high-performance blade steel to the unique G-Wood handle, shows why Bradford knives are trusted by outdoorsmen, survivalists, and everyday users alike.
