The Ulu Factory in Alaska makes a really nice assortment plus useful chopping dishes.
Google UBC/MOA and select ulu to see some of the older work.

Last I heard, 'ulu' is the Inuktitut language word of the Inuit people for "woman's knife."
Very useful for butchering seals and a little chopping.

Ulu is Inuktitut language of the Inuit for "woman's knife." Superior to a blade, like a short cleaver.
Good for cleaning salmon (our Springs can easily go 30kg) and butchering seals.
Google Ulu and select images = you can make just about anything ulu you like.
I had some and gave them to family to keep in the back of their top cupboards.

Have some cleavers that I don't like.
Maybe use the diamond blade in the SawMax and cut some Ulu.
Thanks for the thread, given me some ideas.
