Bradford Guardian 3 Cru-Wear fixed blade knives bring Crucible's high-performance tool steel to Bradford's most carry-friendly platform. Built in the USA with an in-house heat treat, sculpted 3D Micarta scales, and a molded Kydex sheath.
Cru-Wear runs finer carbides than D2, which means a keener apex, better edge stability, and far less chipping under hard use. Cuts hard, strops back fast, and shrugs off the corrosion that punishes pure carbon steels.
The Guardian 3 Cru-Wear comes in three blade configurations. Sheepsfoot for utility and food prep. False edge for piercing geometry. Saber grind for batoning, game processing, and heavier work.
3D contoured Micarta scales in natural, black, green, or camo. Blade finishes include stonewashed, Nimbus, and Black DLC for stealth and corrosion resistance.
