White River Knives Ursus 45 WRUR45-BNA-MAG, Stonewashed Magnacut, Natural Burlap Micarta, Bushcraftmesser

American knives made in USA tend to be way overpriced in Europe. Bought at just under 300,- this was a welcome exception. Using Magnacut, very smooth canvas micarta, a kydex sheath with a matching high quality ferro rod, and exceptional fit and finish, this was actually a fair deal. What’s more, the knife design is exceptionally good, too. No nonsense trying to look cool, but well thought out functionality. The balance is perfect, right on the transition from blade to handle. While the blade looks large, it’s relatively thin, making for a nimble, easy to use knife with no pressure points or hot spots. The grip is comfortable and secure. Using the dangler attachment as a thumb stud the knife is easy to deploy and re-sheath, but sits 100 percent tight in its sheath. Excellent workmanship throughout. My favorite American knife so far.
