Part parang, part machete, 100% competent. The new Wayfinder has all the performance advantages of a much bigger (and heavier) blade, blasting through underbrush and cleaving branches up to 1.5" in diameter. But weighing in at just twelve ounces, this trim titan will more than earn its keep while still leaving plenty of room in your pack for other essentials. Lead the way in every survival situation with the Wayfinder. 

Crafted from .210" CPM-MagnaCut stainless steel, the Wayfinder resists corrosion and staining while holding an edge up to twice as long as comparable steels.  

Our American-made G10 handle says, "Aw, that's cute" to rain, snow, mud and just about anything else you can think of. We designed all our handles for secure, comfortable, hot-spot free use in all seasons and textured them for improved grip when the going gets wet. NEW exclusively for GEN 2: Handles are now completely interchangeable! 

The Wayfinder also features a completely redesigned GEN 2 Carbon Fiber Kydex sheath, featuring an improved, rattle free fit, horizontal, vertical, MOLLE and beltless carry options and more. Specially designed for compatibility with the included UltiClip 3.3 Slim for secure beltless carry no matter how heavy the terrain. 

Backed by an industry-leading warranty and over 50 years' knifemaking experience, the Wayfinder is a stronghold of American quality and craftsmanship.

Second One 👀

After dropping the first down a squat toilet in Riyadh the only rectification was to buy another the same day. It's been worn and used daily since it was gifted, hopefully to toilet Gods are as impressed with it.

Beautiful and functional.

I inspected and tested it out myself when it arrived. Performance was as shown in the videos. Thanks for a “Made in America” product with such high quality.

Another 5 star Dawson blade

Excellent knife. If you’re reading the reviews trying to find a reason not to buy, you won’t find it here. The blade is awesome and performs as you would expect if you’re accustomed with their quality.

Wayfinder!

I absolutely loved the blade profile so I had to pick this one up. It is surprisingly light for a solid chunk of magnacut. Thick stock so it can certainly put in work like the video shows. With its profile this blade be great around the camp site and even the kitchen. Beautiful quality per unusual! Thanks Dawson team!
