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

Skinning, caping and dressing game, tackling daily cutting tasks or as a backup defensive tool, the Dawson Snakebite is a highly versatile and easy to carry pocket fixed blade. 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 an Arizona Copper blade finish plus red and black G10 handle scales.

Brand new, direct from Dawson Knives.

Blade: With a sweeping belly and high hollow grind the clip point blade has great slicing performance and plenty of durability from the tough, American CPM 3V construction. The tip has solid durability while being fine enough for detail work and exceptional piercing. Jimping at the front and back of the spine deliver excellent control for fine cutting tasks and heavy work. 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: Milled and blasted G10 scales are attached with blasted stainless steel hardware over red liners for a rock solid handle. The blasted finish and milled grooves deliver plenty of traction while the pommel end has a flared “fishtail” design that rests perfectly on the pinky for secure comfort in heavy 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.
