HANDLE COLOR:RED + BLACK G10

There are some things whose value we have understood since the dawn of time. Food. Shelter. A stout layer of material between you and the elements, and a knife you can depend on to help you get and keep all three.

The Nomad's do-it-all drop point blade tackles hunting, skinning, camp and everyday chores with ease.  

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. 

We stand behind our blades with an exceptional lifetime warranty, backed by a reputation for quality unparalleled through more than a half-century in the industry. 

The Nomad 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, inside-the-pocket carry no matter how heavy the terrain.

Nomad Satin Finish

This is my fourth Dawson Knife. I bought a Deep Notch several years ago and was so impressed I bought two more as gifts - one for my hunting partner and one for my son. Had them engraved with their names as well. The Deep Notch is a true EDC - right down to the inside the pocket sheath. That knife fits my hand perfectly. Quality blade. Back to the Nomad - I really like the satin finish on this one. And it is super sharp. I was hoping it was a tad bigger than the Deep Notch for hunting (although I've cleaned several deer with the Deep Notch without a hitch). And I got exactly that - a very quality blade that's a touch bigger. It may very well take the number one spot in my hunting line up. The craftmanship of the Nomad is perfect - not a flaw anywhere. Drop point shape for "do it all" functionality. And it fits my hand very nicely. Couldn't be happier with this knife. Before leaving, here's an idea - bring back the Deep Notch with a MagnaCut Satin finish. That would be the ultimate EDC. And I'd be all over that. To the Dawson Team - whatever it is you do, and however you're doing it - keep it up. These are very high quality blades at a very reasonable price and they're made right here in the United States. Thanks for all you do.

Great knife, could have been better

The process in ordering the knife was easy and the consistent updates were great. Unfortunately, when I received the knife the engraving was misspelled. After about a week of reaching out to the customer service team, they have arranged to have my knife returned, re-ground, and refinished. Not sure how I feel about a knife having to go through all of that and then waiting another couple of weeks to get it back. Time will tell I suppose.

Hi Peter! Dang it, I'm very sorry to hear that your knife was engraved incorrectly. We've never had something like that happen before, but unfortunately there's a first time for everything. Checking over your order notes it looks like we were able to work with you to find a satisfactory solution, but if I can help with anything at all, please don't hesitate to reach out. Our office hours are Mon-Fri, 9am-4pm. We really appreciate you giving us the opportunity to make this right for you!

Awesome Apocalypse Black Nomad With Ywo-Tone Carbon Fiber

I have purchased several Dawson Knives fine products over several decades for both my son and myself. This Nomad is an outstanding piece of fine steel with highly pleasing workmanship, steel, and balance/feel. I really look forward to taking it into the field. The Dawson team is outstanding to work with and I look forward to hope visit Prescott soonest to briefly distract them to thank them for their customer and shop support.
