I received a press release about their company one day in my inbox and was like, \u201cHuh, interesting\u2026\u201d And what I ended up finding on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whiteriverknives.com\/\" campaign=\"WhiteRiverKnives\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">website<\/a> was, indeed, interesting.<\/p>\n<p>Before I get into White River the company, allow me to make a general statement about the knife industry, that is thanks to modern technology (CNC machining, 3D printing) it\u2019s now easier to make a knife or edged weapon than it ever was before. Pretty much anyone can make a knife. I guess it\u2019s sorta like the print industry in that way, basically, anyone with a computer can be a \u201cwriter.\u201d Likewise, anyone with some simple tools and a little bit of knowhow can purchase a piece of steel, shape it, send it out for heat treating and cryo, sharpen it and throw some slabs of micarta on it and call it a knife. Knife-making isn\u2019t really all that hard, maybe it\u2019s a bit tedious, but, again, anyone can do it.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, this has an effect on the industry in that it forces serious knifemakers to really distinguish themselves from an increasingly crowded marketplace. Given that everyone has access to the same tools, equipment and steel, an obvious question emerges: what makes your knife better than mine or his or hers, etc?<\/p>\n<p>[one_half]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_53172\" style=\"width: 261px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-BeltView.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53172\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\" class=\"wp-image-53172 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-BeltView-251x300.jpg\" alt=\"A view on the belt.

In other words, can a knifemaker or manufacturer produce a knife that is both affordable and stylish (without sacrificing utility)? If they can, their chances of success are greatly improved. If they can\u2019t, well, it\u2019ll be tough sledding because there are some serious competitors out there that have perfectly balanced the equation.<\/p>\n<h2>Overview<\/h2>\n<p>From what I\u2019ve seen, <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/white-river-knife-tool-shot-show-2015\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1027\">White River Knife<\/a> &amp; Tool has been successful because they\u2019ve mastered both areas, they make reasonably priced knives that have an attractive and distinguishable artistry. \u00a0What is their aesthetic? \u00a0In two words: Naturally elegant. \u00a0The knife they sent me to review is one of their newer models called the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whiteriverknives.com\/products\/sendero-classic\" campaign=\"WhiteRiverKnife\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Sendero Classic<\/a>,\u201d which was was designed with the help of legendary knife maker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jerryfisk.com\/knife_gallery\/themes\/av_knifesite\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\">Jerry Fisk<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Sendero Classic is one of their premium knives. It retails around the $250 price point. I think the most expensive, non-custom knife on their website was around $300. The vast majority of their knives are under $200. Yeah, they make knives that <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/barnes-precision-machine-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"1028\">won\u2019t break the bank<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_53174\" style=\"width: 407px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-WholePackage.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53174\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-53174\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-WholePackage-397x300.jpg\" alt=\"The whole package. \" width=\"397\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-WholePackage-397x300.jpg 397w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-WholePackage-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-WholePackage.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 397px) 100vw, 397px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-53174\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The whole package.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The design of the SC is pretty simple, a drop-point blade with a two-piece, full hidden tang handle and a stainless guard. The steel used is CPM S30V, the popular high-carbon, stain-resistant steel made by Crucible Industries. I\u2019m not going to get into the minutia of how CPM S30V compares to other steels, but if you want to geek out of the details <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crucible.com\/PDFs%5CDataSheets2010%5CdsS30Vv1%202010.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\">here<\/a> is a pretty good reference. What I will say is that it\u2019s really durable, keeps a wicked edge and is easy to sharpen. And really, for the average consumer, what more could one ask for?<\/p>\n<p>When I received the SC I was duly impressed. It was light, quick in the hand and the blade was razor sharp. I think it was the sharpest knife I\u2019ve ever received from a manufacturer, which says a lot about White River\u2019s attention to detail when they\u2019re putting the finishing touches on one of their blades (I can\u2019t tell you how many times I\u2019ve received dull blades from very popular and successful knife companies).<\/p>\n<h2>Specs<\/h2>\n<p>Designer: Jerry Fisk<br \/>\nBlade Length: 4.4\u201d<br \/>\nBlade Thickness: .13\u201d<br \/>\nOverall Length: 9.15\u201d<br \/>\nBlade Steel: CPM S30V<br \/>\nWeight: 4.4 oz<br \/>\nFinish: Stone Wash<br \/>\nHardness: 59 HRC<br \/>\nHandle: Micarta<br \/>\nSheath: U.S. Made Leather<br \/>\nPrice: Around $250<\/p>\n<h2>Utility<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_53178\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-ChickenWings.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53178\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\" class=\"wp-image-53178 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-ChickenWings-400x236.jpg\" alt=\"I used the Sendero to process chicken wings, that is, seperate the round from the flat.

The theory being, that if the knife doesn\u2019t perform well in cutting up some chicken wings or slicing a tomato or mincing some garlic, chances are it won\u2019t succeed at more demanding jobs. Not only that, there is the question of comfort during use. How comfortable is this knife in the hand during these routine chores?<\/p>\n<p>The SC was great in the kitchen. As I mentioned, the blade was extremely sharp and it cut poultry, steak, bread, fruit, vegetables with no problem. There were no issues after sustained usage. The knife didn\u2019t dull, the blade didn\u2019t stain or rust, there were no chips or rolls, the handle held up well. Outside, when cutting into wood, whittling sticks, and splitting branches (batoning), the knife performed great! While the SC can rock in the kitchen, I get the feeling that she loves to be in the great outdoors.<\/p>\n<p>Arguably the main purpose of the knife is hunting. I\u2019m not a hunter. Well, I should say, I\u2019m working on becoming a hunter. I didn\u2019t get a chance to use the SC to field dress a deer. That would really be the ultimate test for a knife like the SC. What I did instead was use the SC to cut up some old floor mats and rugs. I know, I know, it\u2019s not the best substitute. But hey, I had to get creative! The SC performed great on the rugs and mats. The aggressive handguard (see drawback below) really helped to ensure that my hand didn\u2019t slip down the blade while stabbing through the rug and slicing downward.<\/p>\n<p>[one_half]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_53170\" style=\"width: 311px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-Baton-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53170\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-53170\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-Baton-1-301x300.jpg\" alt=\"A spine shot, after some light batonning. \" width=\"301\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-Baton-1-301x300.jpg 301w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-Baton-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-Baton-1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-53170\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A spine shot, after some light batoning.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/one_half]<\/p>\n<p>[one_half_last]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_53164\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-LightBaton.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53164\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-53164\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-LightBaton-400x276.jpg\" alt=\"No problem cutting through. \" width=\"400\" height=\"276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-LightBaton-400x276.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-LightBaton-150x104.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-LightBaton.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-53164\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">No problem cutting through.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/one_half_last]<\/p>\n<p>Yet, for those of you who are not hunters, the SC also makes an ideal pack knife or camping knife and could serve as a self-defense implement.

It gets thicker toward the bottom.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>There are two very minor drawbacks to the knife, as far as I can tell. One is the aggressive guard, that really ensures your hand and fingers stay away from the edge. In theory, that\u2019s great. But for those who like to choke up on a knife, or are accustomed to a knife with an accessible choil, this is a bit of an issue. It\u2019s by no means a deal breaker and if you\u2019re used to using knives with guards it won\u2019t be an issue at all but I figured I\u2019d mentioned it. For me, it was a bit awkward at first, but I like to think I adjusted rather nicely to it.<\/p>\n<p>The second drawback is the girth of the handle toward the end of the knife. Like an old-school revolver handle, the knife handle actually gets thicker toward the bottom. I have big hands, so it\u2019s not an issue for me. But ergonomically speaking, one could argue that the knife should be at the very least uniform down the handle or actually thin out because you\u2019re pinky and ring finger are shorter than your index and middle finger.<\/p>\n<p>Again, these are really trivial concerns that say more about me as a user, and my preferences\/experiences with other blades than any design flaw with the knife.<\/p>\n<h2>Warranty<\/h2>\n<p>White River makes no bones about their warranty. They \u201cguarantee every knife for life,\u201d adding that if \u201cyou are not 100% satisfied with your White River Knife, return it for repair or replacement, free of charge, no questions asked.\u201d Bottom line: when you buy a White River knife, you buy it for life.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_53167\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-InSheath.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"white-river-knifes-sendero-classic\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-53167\" title=\"White River Knife &amp; Tool Presents A Perfect Pack Knife: The 'Sendero Classic'\" class=\"size-full wp-image-53167\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/WRK-InSheath.jpg\" alt=\"In the sheath.
