From the workshop of Bradford Knives in Kent, Washington, the G-Cleaver emerges as a bold evolution of the classic cleaver profile—reimagined for everyday utility and modern tactical performance. Known for their precision craftsmanship and use of premium materials, Bradford Knives has once again pushed the limits of fixed blade innovation with this compact, purpose-driven design.
The G-Cleaver doesn’t just look tough—it is tough. Forged from high-performance Elmax stainless steel, one of the most advanced steels in the world, this fixed blade is built to take abuse and keep slicing. Elmax is prized for its incredible edge retention, superior corrosion resistance, and excellent toughness, making it ideal for demanding environments and rigorous use.
With a 2.63" cleaver-style blade and a stonewashed finish, the G-Cleaver offers both striking looks and real-world durability. The full-tang, skeletonized design reduces weight without compromising strength, creating a streamlined profile that excels in close-quarters work and precision tasks. Whether you're cutting through packaging, prepping food on a campfire, or handling chores around the homestead, this knife is always ready for action.
At just 6" overall and weighing only 2.7 ounces, the G-Cleaver disappears into your kit but delivers heavyweight performance when called upon. The stonewash finish gives it a stealthy, no-nonsense aesthetic while helping hide the marks of daily wear. Ergonomic handle contours with jimping on the spine provide a secure, slip-resistant grip in standard and reverse holds—no scales required. For those who prefer a more personalized touch, Bradford also offers various scale options to suit your style and grip preference.
Each G-Cleaver comes with a precision-molded Kydex sheath, designed for multiple mounting configurations, including neck, belt, or pack carry. It’s compact enough for discreet EDC yet bold enough to hold its own in tactical settings.
Proudly made in the USA, the Bradford Knives G-Cleaver is a compact, capable blade that blends rugged functionality with modern design. It's the perfect companion for collectors, adventurers, and those who demand more from their gear.
