Description
The Emerson Sheepdog
***Serrated Edge Available. Please specify when checking out in comments.
The Emerson Sheepdog Sheepdog features black G-10 handles, and two types of blades: Spear Point and Bowie. As the very first Emerson Flipper knife, it is also the first to feature a new ball bearing washer system that allows for a smooth and fast deployment. The Sheepdog quickly became one of the most highly rated Emerson Knives among law enforcement and civilians alike. We offer two blade types to give you a choice of which profile will suit your needs best. This knife is offered in both stone washed and black, and with plain or partially serrated edges. Find out why everyone is loving the Emerson Sheepdog.
The Birth of the Sheepdog
“The Emerson Sheepdog is the first Emerson flipper knife which also features the new bearing system. Lt. Colonel David Grossman is an icon in the Military and Tactical world. A former Airborne Ranger and West Point Instructor, he is the world’s leading authority on the effects of stress and combat and how they affect an individual when faced with life and death decisions in that environment. He is the author of two groundbreaking books, “On Killing” and “On Combat” which are now regarded as required reading for anyone who must go into harm’s way.
Needless to say, I was both humbled and honored when Colonel Grossman approached me in regard to making an official knife for him and his company, “Sheepdog Knife and Gun.”
So off I went and what came of this meeting was the Emerson Sheepdog Knife. A medium size folder with some important features that are entirely new to Emerson Knives. Knowing that this knife is specifically designed for both police and military use, these two blade styles make the most sense for a utility/defensive knife. We are extremely pleased with the results and I know you will be too. “
