Dawson Knives Gen 2 Shepherd XL Ultrex Camo Handles New Midnight Finish DK49

When it’s time to face the wild head-on, you need a tool that’s built to last. The Dawson Shepherd XL is your no-nonsense, go-anywhere, do-anything knife. Whether you're tackling tough tasks at camp or need a blade that can handle the unexpected, this is the one you want in your kit.

Crafted from premium CPM-Magnacut stainless steel in .210" thick stock, the 5.5" blade is tough, resistant to corrosion, and holds its edge for up to twice as long as standard premium steels. And with the new Midnight Finish, this knife takes on a whole new level of stealth. Imagine a deep, inky black blade that seems to absorb the night around it—rich in texture and depth, giving it a mysterious, tactical edge. It’s like the perfect night—dark, sleek, and quietly commanding respect.

The Ultrex Camo G-10 handle isn’t just for looks; it’s engineered to be tough, rugged, and comfortable, even when things get slippery. Textured for superior grip, it won't crack, warp, or swell no matter what the weather throws at it. Whether you're in a downpour or trudging through snow, this handle will keep you in control.

The GEN 2 Shepherd XL also comes with a GEN 2 Carbon Fiber Kydex sheath that’s slim, rattle-free, and designed to be worn both horizontally and vertically. Plus, the UltiClip Slim 3.3 offers beltless carry, so you can secure your knife wherever you need it—whether clipped to your pocket or carried in the field.

With its Midnight Finish, Ultrex Camo G-10 handle, and rugged performance, the Dawson Shepherd XL is the knife you want in your corner when survival is on the line. This isn’t just a knife—it’s a tactical companion, built to tackle anything you throw at it.
