White River SMKW Exclusive Custom Model 1 Fixed Blade Knife Black PVD S90V/Starry Night G-Carta WRM1-GCRTSN

Built for those who demand precision, durability, and control, the White River Custom Model 1 Fixed Blade Knife delivers a compact fixed blade built for serious field use and reliable everyday carry. American-made craftsmanship meets premium materials in a knife that’s easy to carry yet capable of handling demanding cutting tasks.

The 3-inch drop point blade is crafted from CPM S90V stainless tool steel, a high-performance steel known for exceptional edge retention and impressive wear resistance. A tough Black PVD coating enhances corrosion resistance while reducing glare, giving the blade a stealthy, hard-use finish that performs in outdoor environments. The versatile drop point profile provides excellent control for detailed cutting while maintaining the strength needed for tougher work.

The handle is constructed from stunning Starry Night G-Carta, a distinctive composite material created from natural fibers and fabrics infused with epoxy under heat and pressure. This innovative material delivers impressive durability along with a tactile grip that feels secure in hand. The Starry Night pattern features vibrant swirls of blue, yellow, and purple reminiscent of the dramatic colors found in Vincent van Gogh’s legendary painting. Every handle block is unique, creating a bold visual statement while maintaining practical performance. Extended tang construction increases overall strength and balance, while the large high finger choil allows you to choke up on the blade for exceptional control during precision cuts. A lanyard slot provides an additional carry option for field use.

At 7 inches overall and weighing just 3.2 ounces, the Model 1 offers an ideal blend of portability and cutting capability. A custom-molded Kydex sheath keeps the knife secure, protected, and ready when needed.
