This Ursus 45 is a bit different than our standard in that the blade has a Scandi Grind. This means the bevel angle continues all the way to sharp rather than having a secondary finished sharpened edge. This grind is popular in the world of bushcraft because it is extremely sharp and can be re-sharpened easily with a wet stone.
The White River Ursus 45 is a no frills workhorse. The ergonomic handle design allows for hours of comfortable use. This is the go-to knife in the wild for food prep, processing firewood, carving tools, and building shelter. Includes a leather sheath and ferro rod.
