Bradford KnivesGuardian 3 w/False Edge & Leather Sheath

Incredible!! Very sharp M390 blade with nice micarta scales. At first I thought the handles were a bit small, but the design is very comfortable to grip. Perfect blade for areas where you need to carry a smaller blade. This was my first Bradford and I’m VERY impressed!! I’m going to get a larger model for hiking/camping. Great value; Fantastic knife!

One of my favorite knives. Great size for EDC and light camping. Feels great in my hand and can get hair whittling sharp. Light and reliable

Let me start off by saying the knife is incredibly sharp. It did come with a very small nic in the blade but ill fix that when I sharpen. My complain is the sheath. I was resheathing behind the back and the knife went straight though the side and into my finger about 1/4". Cut straight through the belt loop as well as the side of the sheath. I did order a kydex sheath and a black leather one straight from Bradford and in the meantime superglue the original back together so I can still carry it until the new one arrives. Such a great knife should have a better designed sheath with it.

M390 steel, perfect grind lines, beautiful carbon fiber scales, no burrs, etc.This is a beautiful, functional knife.If there was something to gripe about it would be the horizontal-only carry. I wish they would have made the leather (real plus) sheath (which is also made high quality) able to also carry vertically, but considering the superb quality of this knife I'll make some modifications myself.Great value.

The media could not be loaded.  The knife is beautiful well-made. I wish I still had it. However if you’re gonna make a product this good and match it with something that is not well-made at all overall the product will suffer

Very high quality blade I like that it’s M390 steel only thing I disliked was the leather sheath it comes with for $40.00 I ended up upgrading to an armatus carry solutions architect sheath made specifically for the spear point version of the Bradford guardian 3

I initially gave this knife one star because I thought it could not be sharpened. I spent over an hour using high quality stones that can bring my German kitchen knives to razor sharpness, but the Bradford kife was still dull.Then I read online you need a hard stone for the m390 steel. I pulled out my Sharpton glass stone, and voila, after 5 minutes, the knife was almost factory sharp. I have also read diamond stones perform very well with the metal. But please don't use any traditional stones. The metal simply won't respond, no matter the effort.

I love the Carbon Fiber handles so this knife was great for my collection. The M390 Steel is top of the line and it comes really sharp, exceptionally sharp. It’s a small knife but effective. The sheath I received was suspect but I ordered a new, black one from Bradford for around $10. Good buy.
