Crafted from premium, American-made CPM-Magnacut stainless steel in heavy-duty 0.47cm stock, the Shepherd features a 11.0cm blade that is highly resistant to corrosion or staining. Thanks to their own specialty heat treat, Dawson blades stay sharp up to twice as long as other premium steels.
The American-made G10 handle says, "comfort and resilience" to rain, snow, mud and just about anything else you can think of. They designed their handles for secure, comfortable, hot-spot free use in all seasons and textured them for improved grip when the going gets wet.
Backed by an industry-leading warranty and over 50 years' knifemaking experience, the Shepherd is a stronghold of American quality and craftsmanship.
