Ulu Knife

Ulu:
O1 tool steel, asymmetric 3/32" x 4.5" wide x 4" tall, honed chisel bevel, browned finish, bead blasted black linen micarta, stainless corby bolts and flared tube.




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.

This is the one ive been waiting for, nice.

Thanks for the feedback. Cutting tools don't get much more basic than this one.

Nice job

Price on something like this?

Looks gret Jeff. Did you make that one for yourself?

Thank you. I made a few, used them, tweaked the design and then tweaked it some more. This is the final version that I offer on my website.

I really like that. Hope to get into some of those when I get situated in new shop. Great work!

Thank you, Chief. They are fun to design and make.

Lookin Good! I have four or five customers in Alaska and every one of them ask me if I make an Ulu. It's a VERY popular knife up there

I have a small pocket knife that is an Ulu. Folds up like a regular pocket knife. Neat thing- very sharp

I have a 4" x 3.75" (scaled down) convex chisel bevel version coming off the bench later this week.
