Category: Knives, Swords & Blades

Two ulus with bone handles. The ulu is a traditional knife used primarily by Alaska Native women for tasks ranging from skinning animals to cutting food. Its curved blade allows for efficient rocking motions, making it especially useful for slicing through fish, meat, and hides. Both knives show wear commensurate with use and are soiled. The ulu on the left measures approximately 8.25" x 5.25" high.
