Eskimo’s used the ulu for everything from skinning seals to sewing mukluks ( Eskimo boots), and eating muktuk, seal and blubber. Women used the ulu for preparing walrus hides for use in the construction of the traditional umiak (skin boat). The ulu is still used traditionally, especially when the salmon are abundant in the summer. Not only natives, but people around the world rely on the ulu for everyday cutting.
