Bradford Knives Guardian3.2 Gen 2 False Edge Drop Point
The Guardian3.2 Gen 2 from Bradford Knives is a refined everyday carry fixed blade designed by Brad Larkin—built for field workers, warehouse crews, and home users who want more finger protection than the original Guardian3 with similar concealment. This USA-made knife features a 3.875-inch Böhler M390 false edge drop-point blade at 0.139 inches thick with a flat grind and stonewash finish, hardened to 60-61 HRC for excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. At 7.125 inches overall and 3.74 ounces, or 5.93 ounces with its leather sheath, the Guardian3.2 stays easy to carry and conceal throughout the day.
The second-generation design adds a choil, extending the blade length and shifting grip placement and balance for added finger protection during cutting tasks. The Gen 2 Guardian handle system fully covers the exposed tang along the spine, eliminating hot spots during extended use and creating a warmer, more comfortable feel. Enhanced palm swell and contouring provide a secure purchase in both forward and reverse grips, while the 3D contoured handle preserves the slim Guardian profile. The knife ships with a G3 right-hand horizontal leather sheath for front cross-draw carry. This is a comfortable, practical fixed blade that handles field, shop, and kitchen work with equal confidence.
