Details:

The Bradford Guardian3 is a compact, American made, everyday carry fixed blade that makes a perfect belt-carry companion for urban or outdoor use. Built to replace the modern EDC folding knife, the Guardian3 has a compact size that is easy to carry while still providing plenty of edge for your cutting needs. This GPKnives Exclusive has a false edge blade of Nimbus finished CPM Rex 45 tool steel and Toxic Green and black G10 handle scales.

Brand new, direct from Bradford Knives.

Blade: The modified spear point CPM Rex 45 tool steel blade has a strong false edge swedge and over three inches of razor sharp cutting edge. Discreetly non-reflective, the tumbled black DLC Nimbus finish hides wear while thumb jimping and a generous forward choil offer a secure grip for control in use.

Handle: Flat diamond textured G10 handle scales deliver aggressive traction for a secure grip in any environment. Heat treated tumbled black oxide 416 stainless custom fasteners attach the scales to the full tang for rock solid construction.

Carries via a stitched leather horizontal belt sheath.

CPM Rex 45: CPM Rex 45 (similar to Hitachi HAP40) is a super-high-speed, particle metallurgy tool steel similar to CPM-M4. Higher hardness increases strength and edge stability for thinner, high performance edges with some reduction in toughness. Corrosion resistance is comparable to CPM-M4.
