G-Tanto
The Bradford G-Tanto is the reinforced tip member of Bradford Knives' scaleless G series, built in Kent, Washington on the same skeletonized platform as the G-Necker. Brad Larkin's idea with this family was to let thick stock define the knife instead of grinding it away, so the G-Tanto starts as a 0.16 inch flat of steel and gets profiled rather than layered. No scales, no hardware, nothing to loosen or absorb water.
Nitro-V Tanto Geometry
The 2.625 inch blade runs Nitro-V, a nitrogen enriched stainless that holds a fine edge, shrugs off sweat and salt air, and comes back sharp without a fight. The tanto profile stacks more steel behind the point than a drop point does, which is what you want when the job involves punching through packaging bands, plastic strapping, drywall, or anything else that would roll or snap a fine tip. A tapering grind keeps the edge thin enough to actually slice despite the thick stock.
Skeleton Handle and Everyday Carry
The handle is 3.125 inches, profiled to 0.26 inches, and cut with the Bradford wing logo to shed weight. It is sized for a three finger pinch grip rather than a full fist, which is the honest tradeoff on a knife this compact. The whole thing weighs 2.7 ounces at 6 inches overall and ships in a Kydex sheath, so it rides neck, belt, pack strap, or inside a pocket without announcing itself. An oversized lanyard hole takes paracord or a handle extension if you want more to hold.
G-Tanto Finish Options
Three finishes cover the same knife. Stonewash hides scratches and patina, Nimbus is Bradford's soft blasted matte, and black DLC adds a hard low reflection coating. If you want the same platform with a drop point instead of a reinforced tip, look at the G-Necker, or browse the full Bradford Knives lineup.
