| The
ULU knife (pronounced ooloo) is the most renowned knife
in Alaska. Native people of northern Alaska invented
this knife centuries ago. It is used for hunting, fishing,
skinning, filleting and every other imaginable domestic
cutting need by the Inuit (Eskimo) people.
The
traditional ULU was an Alaskan Native cutting tool
with a handle made of wood or bone and stone slate
blade, with a sharp edge for cutting or carving.
The Native Alaskans made them in all sizes, from a small blade
for cutting skins to a cleaver for carving meat. But,
today's version is manufactured from stainless steel
and provided with a hardwood handle for ease of use.

Jade Handle Ulu
This beautiful mineral is mined above the Arctic Circle.
Natives from this region prospect and mine the huge
boulders. Barges carry the jade down the rivers to artists
who carve it into statues, animal figurines and best
of all, these beautiful handles. Each handle is polished
and often contains small flecks of gold or chromium.
The color is brilliant.

Inupiat Style Cultured
Moose Antler
We made a master pattern from an actual moose antler
and reproduced these natural looking handles using silicone
molds and polyester resin. Hand-staining and finishing
bring put the very natural looking tones. It's hard to
tell it from the real thing.

ULU
Sharpener Item#:
USS
$9.99 Each
Originally designed for use on ice augers, we have found
this handy tool to be great for sharpening Ulus. Of
course, a hard stone or round steel works well, but
with this little gadget, it's easy to keep a sharp edge.
Always use care when sharpening an Ulu or any other
knife. Carefully follow the instructions included.
