Whether you're deep in the backcountry, setting up camp, or preparing kindling, this knife delivers uncompromising performance in a clean, functional package. Proudly made in the USA, the Ursus 45 stands out for its robust construction, premium materials, and field-tested reliability.
With a 4.5-inch drop point blade, the Ursus 45 offers outstanding versatility for bushcraft, survival, and heavy-duty utility tasks. The blade is crafted from CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, heat treated to an impressive 62–64 Rockwell hardness for exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. A stonewashed finish minimizes glare and helps mask wear, while the .158-inch blade thickness provides the strength needed for batoning, prying, and controlled chopping.

Full-tang construction ensures structural integrity from tip to pommel, and the handle slabs are securely bolted on for long-term durability. A pronounced finger guard provides added safety and control during demanding cuts.
Included is a molded Kydex sheath designed for secure retention and convenient belt carry. It’s rugged, lightweight, and field-ready, just like the knife it holds. Weighing 8.3 ounces and measuring 9.5 inches overall, the Ursus 45 is well-balanced and easy to maneuver, yet tough enough for the long haul.
From wilderness guides to serious outdoorsmen, the White River Ursus 45 is built for those who demand performance without compromise. Its American craftsmanship, premium MagnaCut steel, and ergonomic design make it a staple in any outdoor loadout. Order yours today with SMKW!
