The Damascus Blade
The blade is forged from pattern-welded Damascus steel featuring a bold wavy and flowing pattern — etched dark across the full wide crescent blade flat with a bright polished curved cutting edge. The ulu wide crescent profile is designed for a natural rocking chopping motion — ideal for mincing herbs, vegetables, and proteins. The open thumb hole provides a secure grip point when applying pressure during cutting work. For more handmade Damascus kitchen knives, explore our Chef Knives Collection.
The Blue Pakkawood Handle
The handle is crafted entirely from pakkawood — a premium stabilized wood composite dyed in a deep royal blue and teal tone with rich textured grain visible throughout the surface. An open finger loop allows a natural grip from above for the rocking ulu motion. Two steel pins secure the full tang construction. Pakkawood is denser, harder, and more moisture-resistant than natural wood — making it ideal for kitchen and collector knives.
The Crescent Leather Sheath
The sheath is custom-shaped to match the wide crescent ulu blade profile — a medium brown and dark tan leather semi-circular crescent sheath with an embossed eagle design on the top face. One large brass dome stud at the center top and two brass side studs secure and decorate the sheath, with yellow and gold stitching running along all curved edges.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is an ulu knife and how is it used?
A: An ulu knife is a traditional Alaskan curved blade with a handle mounted above the blade. The wide crescent blade is used in a rocking chopping motion — gripping through the finger loop from above and rocking the curved edge for mincing herbs, vegetables, and proteins.
Q: What Damascus pattern does this ulu knife have?
A: The blade features a bold wavy and flowing Damascus pattern — alternating dark etched and bright polished layers across the full wide crescent blade flat. Each knife has a unique pattern due to the handcrafted nature of Damascus steel.
Q: What is the open thumb hole on the blade?
A: The open thumb hole is a circular cutout in the blade flat near the handle. It provides an additional grip point for the thumb when applying controlled downward pressure during cutting work.
Q: Does it come with a sheath?
A: Yes. Every knife includes a premium medium brown leather crescent sheath custom-shaped to fit the wide ulu blade profile, with an embossed eagle design, brass dome studs, and yellow/gold stitching along all edges.
