Product Description
Shaped like the letter “S,” Defcon’s Ulu titanium frame lock is made for comfort and wrist extension when cutting. The Ulu name comes from the shape of the blade, which was popularized by native americans who used them for skinning, cutting food, and sometimes for self defense Read More
OmniseedThis reactionary commentary is such malarkey - It wouldn't be so bad if people actually had a sensible point. But it's just nonsense over and over again, on various products - showing general a lack of understanding of the definition of a "product" or how production works, what quality means, history, naming, logos, and what have you... they just want to tell people what to think. Some of the commentary isn't even related to a product but revolves rather around weird defamatory statements about Drop or Drop's employees. Folks, if you dislike Drop or the products on here that much then there's a really simple solution to your problem. Who are you trying to fool?
I can imagine a native American warrior wielding a pair of ulu blades, ready to mete out death by a thousand cuts (even though a few stabs with a sharp stick would probably be more effective).
Other than this being nothing like an ulu.. what's with the "jungle knife" logo?
14themoneyI have one that is similar from decades ago when I lived in Barrow, Alaska. They are homemade, usually with bone or ivory handles and the blade is usually from a circular saw blade.
Just a note about "ulu." The ulu is a handcrafted knife of the Inuit, they generally use circular saw blades that they section, apply a bone handle, and use them to skin out walrus, moose, caribou etc. The description makes it appear that these handmade knives are no longer in use - which is completely false.
An analogy would be to name a machete a puukko instead.
This is a really stupid name to give to a knife.
It would be nice to see these knives made in a factory populated by Amerindians, no doubt. But then again, it would also be convenient if Americans were allowed to make ANY of our own products these days.
Praetor_NovaLol allowed to?
Because someone is twisting the arms of all these large corporations and forcing them to outsource to off-shore manufacturing plants?
