Lishen Dakota A2 - Rosewood Dymalux - Brass Pins

A2 Fixed Blade with Dymalux Handles

The Lishen Dakota is a compact fixed blade suited for everyday carry, camp chores, or as a dependable backup knife. Its size and balance make it easy to carry all day while still handling real cutting tasks.

Blade

The 3.875" blade is ground from A2 tool steel at 0.125" thick. A2 is prized for its toughness and stability, holding a solid working edge while resisting chipping better than many high-carbon alternatives. This makes it a reliable choice for a knife meant to see hard use.

Handle

The handle is made from Dymalux, a dense hardwood laminate bonded under pressure with resin. This construction gives it added stability and moisture resistance compared to raw wood, while retaining a natural rosewood look. At 6.77oz, the knife has a substantial, well-balanced feel in hand.

Carry

The Dakota ships with a leather sheath, offering a traditional look and secure retention for belt carry. As a fixed blade, there is no lock or folding mechanism to worry about - just a solid, one-piece design ready for use.

Made in the USA.
