The Ulu knife was their main cutting tool and all-purpose knife used by the Eskimo's. It was originally made from flat, thin, rocks, slate, or even jade. Handles were fashioned out of wood, ivory, or bone and often decorated with distinctive markings of the craftsman. It is utilized in applications as diverse as skinning and cleaning animals, cutting a child's hair, cutting food, as a weapon and, if necessary, trimming blocks of snow and ice used to build an igloo.
Ebony is a dense black/brown hardwood. Ebony is dense enough to sink in water. It is finely-textured and has a mirror finish when polished, making it valuable as an ornamental wood.
Our Pocket Ulu are a rare knife that offer a variety of options to utilize this unique knife.
