North Pole

The North Pole — A Yakut Knife Forged for Extremes

Named after the harshest point on the compass, the North Pole embodies the resilience of Yakut bladesmithing. The Kh12MF tool steel blade holds its edge through the toughest tasks — splitting frozen fish, shaving kindling in a blizzard, or field-dressing game at forty below. The Karelian birch handle stays warm in bare hands when metal would burn with cold, and the mountain ram horn bolster anchors the blade with unshakable strength.

Master’s work. One-of-a-kind piece. Each knife is handcrafted by a Yakut master and is truly unique. Minor variations in appearance are a natural hallmark of genuine handwork.
