About this business
This factory is home to the unique and ancient knife developed by the Alaskan Eskimos. The knife is shaped with a semi-circular blade attached to a handle, like a horseshoe with the open end sealed with a straight edge as a grip. The handle, formerly made with antlers, whale or walrus bone, is now offered in many different types of wood. This factory also sells bowls and cutting boards to match its knives. Each of the products has a lifetime guarantee.

Customized a knife for us.
A very cool place to look through the windows and see the knives being made. Beautiful product in several grades and sizes. 5 in, 6 in, and 8 in knives and small medium and large choping "bowls" . Basic knives to hand carved bone handle knives. Plenty of other "Alaska Only" items for sale too. Easy to walk to from downtown (take "C" street to 1st street and look for the building).
Great little shop with awesome gifts. Staff at the factory were very informative and did a great job explaining the history and uses of the Ulu.
I was on the Fish hatchery tour and he said to learn about Ulu Knives from the factory. I walked in and saw the display and said, “what can you tell me about the ulu knife.” The employee said, “it’s made here and cuts almost anything.” I waited for more info and discovered that I wasn’t getting it. Nor would they be getting one dime from me.
