When survival is on the line, don't take your tools for granted. Outfit yourself with the legendary toughness and versatility of a Dawson blade, and laugh in the face of uncertainty.

Crafted from premium, American-made CPM-Magnacut stainless steel in heavy-duty .210" stock, the Marauder XL features a 7"+ 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.

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

The Marauder XL 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 belt carry, no matter how heavy the terrain. 

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

Marauder XL

It is a Christmas gift yet very impressed with the quality and grip is so comfortable. Looks beautiful in person and definitely strong enough for a survival knife. Comes with certificate of authenticity, great owner's manual. Can't wait for my grandson to get and highly recommend.

The Bigger The Better

DawsonKnives did it again! They knocked this out of the park. There’s no option for pictures I took and would love to show them. It came exactly as described and looked. I honestly do love the leather/kydex sheaths. Many complain, but they hold oil very well. I’m able to keep them oiled for 3 months and still the same ridiculous sharpness when it arrived. I love this steel. I’m working to get bigger and bigger knives from DawsonKnives because of such quality. I’m workin to get one of their amazing katanas (Please just give me a huge discount! Haha) I’d rather take this knife versus a Spyderco, Buck, Chris Reeves, etc. Thank you again for another wonderful piece to my collection. I can’t wait for my next knife of the month. Also, I didn’t know I could add wrappings to handles and such. Could someone reach out to me before I order the next knife? I’d like to know what all I’m able to add/modify besides the customize option I see for the few models. Any help would be appreciated.

Marauder XL Is totally awesome!

This is my first Dawson knife and wow! This knife is so beautiful with the copper color blade, matched with the blue handle. Dang! It is really nice. The size is perfect for a larger SHTF self defense tool. It looks good and is also tuff. Check out the website video showing a Dawson blade getting bent both ways 45 degrees and still going back to zero. I’m showing everyone in the office that video and going about my totally rad knife. I love it. I think a couple of my coworkers are looking into getting a sword from Dawson.
