Dawson Knives Gen 2 Outcast Ultrex Camo G10 Handle Arizona Copper Finish DK56

Ready to break away from the pack? Meet the Outcast — the ultimate lightweight fixed blade built for serious everyday carry and backcountry adventures.

Slim, streamlined, and made to move with you, the Outcast is perfect when every ounce counts but you still need plenty of slicing power and a strong point for piercing tasks. With an overall length of 8 inches and a razor-sharp 3 1/8-inch blade, this knife brings big performance in a compact, carry-friendly package.

Crafted from .140-inch thick CPM MagnaCut stainless powder steel — milled right here in the USA — the Outcast is heat treated in-house to an ultra-tough Rockwell hardness of 61–62. The result? You get exceptional edge retention, next-level toughness, and outstanding corrosion resistance no matter where you roam.

Finished in a stunning Arizona Copper, the blade shimmers with gold, bronze, and copper tones, reminiscent of a desert sunset. Not just good-looking, this low-glare, food-safe finish is perfect for stealthy field tasks, food prep, or hard use in rugged conditions.

The Outcast is built for real-world performance, and that includes its American-made Ultrex Camo G-10 handles. Fully textured for a no-slip grip — even when wet — these rugged scales are immune to warping, cracking, swelling, and everything else Mother Nature can throw your way. A deep finger choil and thumb ramp give you superior control over fine work, while a lanyard slot at the pommel lets you secure your knife when you're really getting after it.

Weighing in at a featherweight 4 ounces without the sheath (7.5 ounces with the sheath), the Outcast won't drag you down — but it’ll be ready when you need it. It rides in a fully upgraded GEN 2 Carbon Fiber Kydex sheath featuring an improved, rattle-free fit. Whether you carry it horizontally, vertically, MOLLE-mounted, or clipped inside your pocket with the included UltiClip Slim 3.3, the Outcast offers supreme versatility and security.

Every Outcast is 100% designed, handcrafted, and finished right here in the USA using American-sourced materials. If you’re looking for a high-performance fixed blade that’s lightweight, tough as nails, and built to go the distance, the Outcast is ready to run wild with you.
