Any WRK owners here? Specifically the Ursus 45. I was about to pull the trigger on a benchmade 162 bushcrafter but then came across the ursus 45. Same steel different handle material but it comes with a way better sheath. How do you guys like your white river knives?

I have both, and love my Ursus 45 for bushcrafting. It does have two different steel options: 3V or s35VN (stainless). Seems like most people prefer the carbon 3V for it's edge superiority but I chose stainless since we live Hawaii. Super comfortable knife. The kydex sheath it comes with could be more friendly but well made.

I have a few, all in S35VN

I have a couple ESEE in1095. Super easy to sharpen, but needs more attention in Hawaii (like mentioned above). Most of my recent knives are S35VN or M390. I don’t think they are as hard to sharpen as they have a rep for. They hold edge really well and stainless performance is quite good.
