Dawson Knives Handyman Arizona Copper 3V Red/Black G10 Fixed Blade

A perennial favorite at Dawson Knives, the Handyman is an EDC pocket fixed blade with a multipurpose design. You get the strength and security of a fixed blade with an exposed tapered pommel that can be used as a flat head screwdriver, pry tool or glass breaker as well as a wire breaking notch in the ricasso. Dawson utilizes American-made, CPM 3V powder metallurgy steel which offers exceptional toughness with edge holding up to three times longer than D2 and a clear Cerakote coating for corrosion resistance. This version comes with red and black layered G10 handle scales and an Arizona Copper finish blade.

Brand new, direct from Dawson Knives, USA.

Blade: Differentially heat treated American CPM 3V gives the simple drop point blade optimal performance with a slicing high hollow grind and robust, piercing tip. Jimping at the front and back of the spine deliver excellent control for fine cutting tasks and heavy work. Jimping provides added safety paired with the integral guard, and a notch in the ricasso can be used for wire breaking. Arizona Copper is a proprietary finish that gives each blade a unique, copper like finish while also being surprisingly non-reflective for discreet use.

Handle: Thick and contoured, the matte blasted G10 scales are attached with black stainless-steel hardware over red liners for a robust, secure and comfortable handle. Deep milled grooves pair with the blasted finish for a traction and safety in the hand without being overly aggressive. The exposed, tapered pommel end delivers multipurpose versatility, while the deep index choil and subtle guard lock the knife in hand for safe use. Each knife is 100% hand made and includes a Certificate of Authenticity with spec sheet and serial number.

Sheath: Carries via a hybrid leather/Kydex sheath with metal pocket clip.

CPM-3V: A high carbon alloy steel that is extremely tough and has enough chromium to have some corrosion resistance. Care and maintain is required. High toughness translates to a stable edge that can be ground thin for enhanced performance. 3V has good edge retention, approaching VG-10 and CPM-154, with more than 3x the toughness.
