What an awesome knife! I prefer to EDC a fixed blade during daily ranch chores and this is the perfect size. Never in the way but always there. Not too big but robust and handles everyday chores with ease. Phenomenally sharp and has stayed that way. Feels really good in the hand and has jimping on the spine in just the right places for detail work. Very happy with it.

Nehemiah This knife is sharp…literally and figuratively.
Very happy with my first Dawson purchase! Amazing craftsmanship at an affordable price. Also happily surprised to find it came with an ulticlip.

Very well explained. I have just ordered one of your Javalina knives, and was interested in the blade and handle composition. Reading about both, plus the bending-don’t try this at home-makes me even more excited anticipating the delivery of this blade. And, at 69, it’s not easy to get me excited. Mike

I’ve studied on blade steels a little for the last few years, and this article is the best simplified explanation on 3V that I’ve read. I appreciate it.

Great article, the knife I’ve been using for years is a Blackjack Tac Ops4 1095 blade that was triple heated with sct and dct cryogenic treatments. It has been extremely tough, holds a good edge and is easy to sharpen. I am interested in a CPM 3V knife but I’m not sure about its difficulty in sharpening in the field. Your blades look awesome but most are sold out, so please email me when they become available.
Thank you
