Like most I’ve owned knives since I was a kid. Starting with a Buck 110 as a kid, and lots of gas station folders. In recent years I got the bug to get nicer knives. A $100 folder here and there. A couple of decent fixed. I was never blown away. All that changed when my Dawson order arrived last week. Just amazing. Weight, quality, feel. Just a superior experience. I am… finally Blown Away by a knife. 2 actually. I bought the Contractor and the Sheppard. Love em both!!
Began with the beautiful little Harvester. Such a comfortable fun little knife that will be at my side every time I'm camping. I followed it with the Reaper. Wanted something a little bigger so I can bushcraft in style. So excited for a stretch of warmer weather to put these to an outdoor test. They have both already aced the "dang that is a GREAT looking knife" test!
Received my nomad and absolutely love it. Loved it enough I ordered a Shepard, marauder, and seraphim.
Upon starting my search and research on Dawson knives, the hardest part of it all was trying to decide what model to get. I knew whatever I picked would be amazing from the commitment and passion written in the words on the webpage and looking at all the happy customer feedback that’s already there. When I got the knife, I was still blown away. It is amazing, perfect weight, razor Sharp, thick enough to trust to last, and feels great in the hand. The customer support staff was so amazing to help me with my order that wasn’t quite custom but had a few tweaks. Thank you all!
This is an incredibly unique blade from the shape to the pattern. Mine is a wildfire with red and black grip. I switched out key components like my preferred pocket clip and added a luminescent copper bead to find it in the dark along with a ferro rod to the sheath. Definitely one of my favorite edc blades to carry. Handle is slightly bulky but it makes it easier to grab to draw so I wouldn't say it's a problem or con but just a preference. Looking at some of the larger blades for next purchase.
