Holdout Elite Bowie | Original Field + Camp Bowie | ProCut Steel

Holdout is an American legend refined, reimagined and reborn - a tried-and-true camp, field and survival bowie crafted for the elite outdoorsman. Precision designed by Dawson's master craftsmen, Holdout features a customized grind for a tough, razor sharp edge and best-in-class performance in the field. Optimized balance offers fast deployment and targeted chopping. We chose American-made G10 for our handle scales - tough, waterproof and virtually impervious to the elements. Then we developed our own signature Topographic handle contouring, specifically designed to maximize contact with your hand and reduce friction for a comfortable, secure grip.
