    Fellow Florida man. I appreciate that you drank a red bull mid video and announced it. You earned a sub from that alone... Idk why I'm watching a video on a knife I've owned since early 2019 but here I am. Carrying the Guardian 3 in M390 with textured carbon handles. I sharpen it on a KME once in a while lol it holds an edge for SOOOO long, it has an excellent heat treat. The Armatus Carry kydex sheath is supreme dude check it out. I carry 1 o clock with a soft loop. Every day for 5 years bro it's the best knife I've ever had

      Man I love Bradford knives. Blade HQ had them on sale pretty recently. I think they are still someone discounted. Great knives though and super sharp out of the box. Zero complaints at all!

    I just picked up a guardian 3.5 in 3d camo micarta with magnacut steel and black nimbus finish, excited!

      Dude that’s an awesome variant! I’m totally jealous. The guardian 3 is definitely my favorite fixed blade so far. I wish I’d have done a different finish and scales on mine.

    There's a typo in your channel ID right below the video. Instead of "Florida Boy EDC", it says "Florida Boy ED". That may not be the image you're trying to present.

    Hi. 😊 excuse my english i'm french. But on the handles of your knife there is some dry glass fibers as you can see on the clear parts. I am a big fan of bradford, I have three micarta models of guardians 3 but i have never seen defects like that. If you don't care about it, good, but if your handles gone a be wet it may be a problem, water retention, delaminations... wonderfull knife anyway and thanks for your share. 🙂

    • @FloridaBoyEDC
      @FloridaBoyEDC  Рік тому +1

      I didn’t even realize that. My Bradford G-Necker has some cosmetic issues inside the tang. Both knives I’ve gotten from them have had a couple small issues. Which is kind of upsetting because I like the knives a lot. I’ll probably end up getting some carbon fiber scales for the Guardian 3 and not using the Micarta.

      This is such a great knife. I love carrying it! I really wish I would’ve gone with the carbon fiber though instead of the natural micarta. I might dye the scales though. We will see.

    Yup a beauty. I just purchased the Guardian 3.2 Magnacut with natural micarta handle. Flat grind blade. So looking forward to playing with it. I dare say you are correct about the need to brandishing the sheath a we bit more. But that will be some fun making it mine. How slicey is it? For you. Great review.

    • @FloridaBoyEDC
      @FloridaBoyEDC  11 місяців тому

      Pretty dang slicey! at some point in time, my blade chipped... I'm not even sure when or how it happened, but it's still a great, purposeful knife. I'm super jealous you got the Magnacut! That wasn't an option when I got mine and I wish I would've waited.

    Nice fixed blade . I've seen them but never pulled the trigger . For the price I usually picked up a pocket knife that I would carry more . But I might have to change my mind 😃

    • @FloridaBoyEDC
      @FloridaBoyEDC  Рік тому +1

      I’m carrying this BG3 and the Kansept! I love carrying a couple knifes. Also, can’t fidget a fix blade. And I sure love to fidget that Kansept all day. 😂 I do love the fixed blade though. I just like how sturdy it feels in your hand … not that any of the tasks I do require that, but still. Haha

      @@FloridaBoyEDC Glad that kansept is getting some love . Fixed blades ,neck knives and slip joints don't really have a fidget factor. But a nice looking knife will always get my attention, I'll figure out what to do with it after I get it 😂 lol

    • @FloridaBoyEDC
      @FloridaBoyEDC  Рік тому +1

      I’m the exact same way! I’m still loving the Kansept! I do some honing on the blade occasionally to just keep it razor sharp and I use it for pretty much everything. I’m just a knife nut and like to carry more than one knife. 😅

    Its a spanner bit I believe.

    • @FloridaBoyEDC
      @FloridaBoyEDC  11 місяців тому

      It is! But its wonky. I have a small set of spanner bits, like 4 of them to the set, and none of them worked. The one set that did fit, couldn't turn the screws. Just bent out the prongs of my spanner bit. Maybe the scales have lock tight on them but I'm not sure.
