The Dozier gets used more than any knife in my collection because its my fishing knife. I bought it a few years ago as an alternative to the Salt because it had some similarities and was under $20. High-Vis FRN with good traction, no steel liners to rust, jimping, Reversible tip-up pocket clip, 1 screw take-down to clean it, light as a feather, Stainless steel (but of course not 100% stainless for the Aus8 like the H1)

I'm out there a lot. whether on the boat or from the surf/jetty. I use this knife for everything you can think of. I even use the butt of the FRN to unscrew the gas cap on my boat, because its thin enough to get in the groove.

SO the reuslts...Go get one!

Its a winner! NO rust at all (basic maintenance), It sharpens up super quick. Slices all of my baits silky smooth, I've filleted 100's of fish with it (some for me to eat and some for bait), Pocket clip has been fine. Coating has been surprisingly durable, NO WASHERS to rust or retain moisture!! The washer is molded into the FRN.. Genius!! Removable thumb stud for sharpening.

The blue one is my "Fish Hunter" with the forward jimping done by me.
