History is riddled with periods of uncertainty. A wise man doesn't panic, he prepares. Fortify yourself against future challenges with a tool you can rely on, no matter what.

Shepherd is crafted from the latest advance in modern metallurgy—NEW, heavy-duty 3/16" stock Pop's ProCut steel. ProCut is the latest hard-wearing, sharp shavin', take-a-hit-and-keep-coming invention of Dr. Larrin Thomas, the brilliant mind behind CPM-MagnaCut. ProCut stands toe-to-toe with MagnaCut in field and endurance tests, more than holding its own where it counts and demonstrating exceptional impact resistance, lateral strength and edge sharpness and retention. See how ProCut stacks up.

Our American-made G10 handle stands up 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 Shepherd 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 carry in the backwoods or around the ranch.  

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

Premium work! Absolutely love the Shepard Rainstorm. I thought the blue handles would be a little brighter but thats ok, I understand picture lighting. The carbon fiber sheath is awesome! This is my first hand made knife of this caliber; Im highly impressed and pleased. Its great to support a company like this. God bless! Thanks!

Very Nice!

This is a great knife. Excellent work and attention to detail. It's not the perfect knife, so unfortunately I am going to have to order more knives until I find the perfect one. I will be ordering from Dawson because if a perfect knife can be made Dawson will be the company that makes it.

Excellent Solid Knife

I love this knife. It's well crafted and has great balance. The handle is the best handle I've ever had on a knife. I'm rough on knives and love a durable knife with a durable edge. This knife exceeds my expectations on both counts. Highly recommend.

Not a knife that we would find in a box store

When I unpacked it, held it, it felt like; I guess what a real knife should, perfect, heavy, beyond sharp, handsome.
I’ll have it the rest of my life, as well as my daughters. Thank you all at Dawson. The love you all obviously have for you work, shines in my knife.
Thanks, Mark
