Ultralight Strength, Built for the Long Haul
A High-Performance EDC for Serious Carriers
The White River Knives M1 Backpacker Pro isn’t just another compact blade—it’s a refined tool built for reliability. Designed in the USA, it excels as a lightweight hiking knife or a trustworthy EDC. Whether you’re deep in the backcountry or on the move in daily life, this knife delivers consistent, no-nonsense performance.
At the core of its design is CPM S90V steel, chosen specifically for its incredible wear resistance and edge retention. As a result, you’ll spend less time sharpening and more time cutting. In addition, the G10 handle provides outstanding grip in any weather—wet, dry, or gloved.
Although it’s compact, this knife is no lightweight when it comes to durability. In fact, it punches far above its size, thanks to smart materials and proven craftsmanship. The Kydex sheath locks it down securely, while the belt clip keeps it close and ready.
Engineered to Keep Going
Because CPM S90V is so wear-resistant, it holds an edge long after others dull. Therefore, it’s ideal for extended use in rugged conditions where reliability matters most. That’s why this steel is trusted by professionals.
Compact. Capable. Completely Dependable.
Not only is the M1 Backpacker Pro easy to carry, but it’s also built to perform when it counts. The G10 handle and Kydex sheath keep things streamlined without sacrificing function. Every detail is deliberate—nothing wasted.
