Review: Get it!!! - You just can’t go wrong with this knife. It’s a sub compact EDC fixed blade with a decent sized blade. I have a couple Bradford’s in N690 steel and they have all been exceptional out of the box. The handle is small I do prefer the added length of the g3.2 and g3.5, but the design is very good despite it being just a tad short. There is no fear of getting caught by the blade as long as you are aware of what you’re doing when you draw the knife. Useful in many hand position but focused on everyday utility tasks. Fantastic design, the steel may not be everyone’s cup of tea but it has proven to be a fantastic choice. Seriously their n690 cuts better than their Magnacut, 3v, or Elmax (definitely won’t hold an edge as long as those steels but it holds a very good edge none the less, and not nearly as difficult to sharpen).
Review: Love it - The heat treat is great, makes a great edc knife, handle is fairly comfortable for me having large hands (probably great with normal to small hands), probably a 3 and a half finger grip in my hand, the micarta has plenty of grip without being rough in hand and was finished very well with a very grippy shape offering to not slipping in a forward or reverse grip on heavy cuts, the n690 steel holds an edge very well and as good or better as any n690 knife I've personally owned and has a very thin slicey profile, it does have a well finished somewhat rounded spine making it very comfortable to choke up on for "precision" cuts, but it will not strike a ferro rod, as for the sheath it is a horizontal carry, right hand crossdraw, un-dyed veg tan, fitted sheath, while I did flip my knife over in the sheath and carry it on my right hip, handle forward (as the belt loop is only on one side, but it is stiched on all sides with a welt all the way around), it could do with a bit of remolding if you intend to carry it in this manner, although it is a very plain sheath, it does seem to be well made, fantastic for its intended use and somewhat versatile with a little time spent on it, I feel like it is a fantastic knife for the money and very comfortable to use as a edc

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All I can say is wow!
*by B***N on October 21, 2017*

First impressions. It's a beautiful piece of work! Attention to details is spot on. The blade is wicked sharp. Nicked myself and didn't even know it. I've been in contact with Bradford Knives about this blade, specifically. Since I couldn't find any good details about N690 steel online, I asked a few questions about it. Brad, the maker of this knife, responded and sang its praises! He doesn't know why the price for this steel is only 1/4 of M390. Fantastic edge holding, good durability and toughness, but slightly less corrosion resistance than M390. N690 is not powder steel like M390, but the characteristics are very similar. As for Brad's work, the 3D handle is perfect for my hand. The sheath is nice quality, but I'm ordering from Brad a lefty sheath...only 10.00. This will be a daily carry for just daily tasks and Brad says this is the perfect steel for that. It comes with the sheath and a knife care card (sharpening instructions and cleaning), along with Brad's business card. Very impressed and happy. Buy one before they disappear!
