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.

Crafted from premium CPM-Magnacut stainless steel in heavy-duty .210" stock, the Shepherd features a 3 7/8" blade that is highly resistant to corrosion or staining. Thanks to our own specialty heat treat, Dawson blades stay sharp up to twice as long as other premium 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 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.  

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

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

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

Giveaway Review!

God blessed me by allowing me to be the winner of the Dawson Shepherd giveaway! My dad has a Dawson knife, and I’ve always wanted one too. Looking forward to many hunting adventures with him using our Dawson Knives to skin out deer and pigs here in Texas.

Thanks again guys for the top notch knife!

A hunk of steel!

The quality of this knife is outstanding, without question. I bought the heavier blade for backpacking and a chore knife. I didn’t understand…. lol. The blade is much heavier than anticipated, and will be too heavy to carry backpacking. It will be relegated to my truck as a utility knife. All this said, the quality is great; it’s just the wrong blade for me.
