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, American-made 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.

My favorite knife from Dawson

The size, weight, and balance of the Shepherd is excellent! The blade is thick and wide, so it's a perfect fit for me when I go backpacking. I have a few Dawon knives now and they are all excellent!

The Best There Is!

I have nothing but good things to say about Dawson Knives and my Gen 2 Shepherd. The knife itself is a functional work of art made of top-quality steel. The experience speaking with the staff about what knife would best fit my needs was second to none. I can say one thing for absolute certain—this is my first knife from Dawson, but it will not be my last!

Striving for perfection

Over the years I’ve had some of the best custom knives.
The Dawson knives are the best of the best.
I have given them as gifts to my Sons , 1 a full time Cowboy, and my youngest as a hunter and fisherman.
They prize their knife as the go to tool , they carry every day.
I put them in my will because they want my collection too!

Bad service

Weather affected my shipment and the company waited till the last moment, two weeks later, to contact me. I paid a fee for fast shipping and I understand the situation but they never got in touch with me, maybe the storm damaged their phones? Who knows.
Very disappointing

Hi Elcira! I'm very sorry to hear you were disappointed in your experience with us. After some investigating, it looks like your order was placed on March 11th at 6:12PM, and it was shipped March 12th via UPS 2nd Day Air. It was delivered 4 business days later, on March 18th. After tracking your package, it appears that UPS experienced some kind of delay during transit, which resulted in your package arriving on the 18th rather than the 14th. (UPS does not deliver over the weekend) I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but unfortunately, we have no control over your package's progress once it is in the carrier's hands. If I can answer any other questions please don't hesitate to ask!

Quality enough that I've purchased 5 knives in a month.
