Guardian 3.5 XL — built for the work that matters.
This is the one we had in mind for the hunt.
The Guardian 3.5 XL brings a little more reach and control where it counts—whether you're breaking down game or handling fine, deliberate cuts in the field.
Steel matters out there, and AEB-L just makes sense.
It takes a razor edge, holds it where you need it, and—most importantly—comes back fast with simple field sharpening. No fuss, no fighting your tools, just back to work.
Paired with a handle that stays locked in when things get real, this is a knife designed to perform when it’s not clean, convenient, or easy.
Not a showpiece.
A working knife for people who actually use them.
This blade is compact enough to conceal and carry, but with a 4inch blade it handles the tougher, outdoor task with ease. We chose AEB-L steel for its exceptional toughness, edge retention, corrosion resistance and approachable field sharpening ability. This blade comes with a NEW sheath design, offering both vertical and horizontal carry option. The best part of this blade- it was inspired and 100% customer driven. Thank you for your feedback- we listen and appreciate your support!
For a secure carry option that improves retention, consider adding kydex. The kydex retains the knife with retention around the finger guard and is impervious to most jobsite chemicals and weather conditions.
