American Made: Dawson Knives

Published by
Recoil Staff

Dawson Knives has been building custom knives and swords for nearly 50 years, with three generations of our family working together out of our shop near Prescott, Arizona. We use CPM-3V powder steel for all our blades – an incredibly tough, flexible, American-made super steel that holds an edge up to 3x longer than D2. We’re modern traditionalists, holding ourselves to a standard of heirloom quality and outstanding American craftsmanship while constantly researching new ways and methods to make something that was already good, better.

DEEP NOTCH A sleek, classic drop point style blade and deep finger notch make the Deep Notch Skinner one of the most comfortable and intuitive knives you’ll ever use.

Pathfinder The Pathfinder rocks as an all-around field and camping knife. Its heavy-duty drop point blade has plenty of heft for chopping, shelter building, camp chores and game quartering.

Relentless Sword This modern samurai-style sword features a full length top bevel that strips away excess weight, revealing a lean, hungry beast with a nasty attitude and plenty of teeth.

Helmsman An exceptionally well-balanced chopper, the Helmsman feels light and fast despite the considerable power it brings to bear.

Chief The Chief excels in both the woods and field; a tough, all-purpose blade ideal for backpacking, camping and bushcrafting in every kind of terrain.
