White River Ursus Cub
The White River Ursus Cub is the full size Ursus 45 made lighter, more compact, and easier to wield, striking a balance of size and performance that makes it a robust everyday carry. Made in the USA by White River Knife & Tool in Fremont, Michigan, it stays comfortable through extended use while remaining small enough to carry all day on a belt or in a pack.
A Compact 3.5 Inch Camp Knife
The Ursus Cub carries a 3.5 inch blade on .130 inch stock, 7.6 inches overall at 4.9 ounces. That size handles food prep, carving, and light firewood processing without the weight of a big bushcraft blade, making it one of the most versatile bushcraft knives White River builds for daily carry.
CPM MagnaCut at 63 to 64 Rc
The Ursus Cub comes standard in stonewashed CPM MagnaCut hardened to 63 to 64 Rc, a stainless that holds an edge through long camp chores and shrugs off corrosion in wet weather. Our comparison of every major knife steel explains why MagnaCut has become the benchmark for hard-use fixed blades.
Micarta Handle Options
We carry the Ursus Cub in Black Burlap, Natural Burlap, and Black and OD Green Linen Micarta. Micarta holds a sure grip when your hands are wet and wears in with character over time, as our guide to knife handle materials explains.
Ferro Rod Spine and Sheath Options
A section of the spine is sharpened for striking a ferro rod, and one is included with a Kydex sheath that locks the knife solidly in place until you need it. A separate Ursus Cub leather sheath is available too. Like every White River, it is guaranteed for life with free sharpening. For more blade, step up to the full size Ursus 45, or compare the Firecraft FC4.
