Yakut knives, traditionally crafted in the vast and icy landscape of Siberia, are more than just tools—they are a piece of living history and craftsmanship.

Our Yakut knife is handcrafted by skilled blacksmiths using an ancient technique passed down through generations. Each blade is forged from robust carbon steel, known for its edge retention and durability. The asymmetrical shape, with its characteristic hollow grind on one side, makes this knife a versatile companion. It's ideal for woodworking, preparing meals in the wild, or for fine carving.

The ash wood handle not only lies comfortably and securely in the hand but also gives the knife a unique, natural aesthetic, even when wet.

The knife sheath is made of vegetable-tanned cowhide with a smooth and matte finish. The natural grain reflects the high quality of the material used. It offers a comfortable grip, is extremely durable, and features an extra-wide belt loop for added flexibility.
The leather was dyed with 100% natural alcohol-based dyes in the color "walnut."
A "vintage" finish seals the pores, protects the knife and sheath from moisture, and gives the overall craftsmanship a great, rustic look.
The highlight was the traditional double saddle stitch! (Each stitch contains a knot between the two leather pieces.)
This elaborate sewing technique guarantees a particularly long service life and is a testament to very high quality.

This Yakut knife is more than just a utility item. It's a reliable partner for anyone who values ​​authenticity, quality, and a connection to nature.
