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. 

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. 

Maximize your knife's versatility with GEN 2's new precision milled, interchangeable handle scales upgrade. Exclusively compatible with the GEN 2 Wayfinder. Get yours here.

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

Best multi-use knife

I wanted one knife that I could use for everything if I had to and this is it. Not just a knife but also a mini machete if needed. The quality is excellent and looks fantastic with the limited-edition Savanna handle. It is a well-designed knife!

Re: Great Blades from Dawson

This Gen 2 Wayfinder is another great blade from Dawson. Absolutely masterfully functional and beautifully made, but if I am honest, I most enjoy showing this blade, and my Woe Trench Dagger, Defender of the Faith, Many Waters 19" Sword, and Roman Gladius 19" Sword to my gun and knife buddies. Even the most jaded collectors absolutely melt. The obvious quality of the blades and the family history make a compelling tale as I show the blades. The group will be rapt for at least 20 minutes. C'mon. Don't we spend all this time and money collecting for some reason??
