My first knife treat in the Hamon method. People really bashed Japan way back when I was a kid, but when it comes to steel, they really know their stuff. This knife amazes me how it fits my hand. It doesn’t look comfortable, but it really is. I’ve been down with my back, so I haven’t used it yet, but I have carried around the house. There isn’t one thing I’d change. I can’t wait to gut, and skin a deer with it. P.S. Sera is awesome. She is very helpful, an honest to God asset to the company.
Thing was razor sharp out the box. Truly a beautiful looking blade with amazing ergos in hand. Exactly what I was looking for and a perfect Segway into the Dawson brand. Can’t wait to add more to the collection!
The Companion is just about perfect in your hand. The details in the blade are gorgeous.
That said the kydex sheath is ridiculously over-sized essentially defeating the purpose of a small carry knife. I’m waiting on a custom deep pocket sheath.
I was very impressed with the quality and toughness of this knife. I am also very impressed with the fit and secure hold the sheath provides. I can carry it with out worrying it might fall out.
I purchased a Companion along with a Contractor. As with the larger Contractor, the Companion is well built with attention to detail. The only thing that’d make this knife perfect would be a leather cross draw sheath. Keep up the great work Dawson!
