Working on my first ever Ulu knife. It's starting to take shape.   I'll try to remember to take some more pics as it progresses.

A little more progress. Some file work across the top.  Heat treated, sanded down and ready to etch.

I like the detail on the edge of the handle. What kind of material are you going to use for the grip?

Very nice. Have you ever done an Ivory handle? Well not on a Ulu but I've done several Ivory handles on knives. Mammoth and fossil Walrus for the most part. Fossil Walrus Ivory scales and Walrus Oosic bolsters on this one.
