This blade is designed around a methodology of use, ensuring it meets the specific needs of its users rather than conforming to a general method. We take immense pride in offering this exceptional knife at an accessible price point, making it a valuable addition to any tactical arsenal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Guardian blade is finished in either a Black or Flat Dark Earth PVD coating, enhancing its durability and resistance to wear while providing a sleek appearance. The PVD coating not only protects the blade from corrosion and scratches but also minimizes glare, making it an optimal choice for tactical environments. The handle scales are machined from premium G10, a high-strength composite material known for its outstanding durability and resistance to moisture, heat, and chemicals. This ensures a secure grip in various conditions, vital for high-stress scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the standout features of the Guardian is its two-finger ring, designed to enhance control and stability in close-quarters combat (CQB) environments. This unique design aids in maintaining grip during intense situations, making it an invaluable tool for professionals who demand the very best. Available in limited quantities as a contract overrun, the Professional Guardian is crafted with superior materials and craftsmanship, giving you a tactical advantage when it counts the most.\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis blade is available on the GSA schedule as well as the EMall for Military\/LEO purchase as is the training module.
