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

Cold Taiga is a handmade Yakut knife that draws its name and spirit from the vast boreal forests of Yakutia — a land of permafrost, ice fog, and silent snowbound wilderness. The 40Kh13 stainless steel blade delivers dependable corrosion resistance and edge retention, performing reliably in the cold, wet conditions that define the Northern outdoors. At 130 mm, the blade is sized for versatile use: skinning, slicing, whittling, and camp food preparation.

What sets this Yakut knife apart is its moose antler bolster — a material sourced from the Siberian wilderness that is naturally tough, moisture-resistant, and uniquely patterned. Combined with a Karelian birch handle that glows with warm, swirling grain, Cold Taiga offers a striking visual contrast that celebrates the raw beauty of the North. The leather sheath keeps the blade secure for carry in the field. A superb choice for hunters, outdoor enthusiasts, and collectors seeking an authentic piece of Yakut knifemaking heritage.
