I love the ulu that my mother-in-law got me in Alaska. What's your personal favorite kitchen knife?
The rounded edge of the Zasshu Knife quickly cuts julienne vegetables and rocks like an ulu for a precise cut. It's the one knife my kitchen needs!
Where can I buy an ulu knife in Fairbanks, Alaska?
And how much does one cost on average?
Every store has them. In grocery stores and Walmart they are in the Alaska tourist section. Like most things you can get cheap ones or expensive ones. You can also buy them online. Check out the Ulu Factory in Anchorage.
