What Makes It Uncommon

A Cut Above

Alexandra Paliwoda's gorgeous, hand-forged tool is inspired by the shape and function of the traditional ulu knife. Indigenous Yup'ik, Inuit, and Aleut people have been using them since at least 2500 BCE for tasks ranging from chopping food to cutting hair to shaping blocks of ice for igloos.
The unique knife's curved, easy-grip handle and beveled blade, made from recycled low-carbon steel, makes quick work of slicing cheese, chopping fresh herbs and vegetables, or cutting crispy pizza slices. Its striking design features one of her favorite places in the North Country, the rugged Bitterroot Mountain Range in Montana.
Each piece is hand-stamped on the back with the artist's signature touch-mark, an anvil with mountains and trees. The hand-forged, notched-steel stand, included, offers convenient storage and display. Add a personal touch with two short lines of text, like a name and year. Handmade in Idaho.

Montana

Alexandra Paliwoda expresses her love of the great outdoors with her hand-forged ironwork. Her business began in the wilds of Wrangell-St. Elias, Alaska, a remote location where Alexandra saw steel as the medium most similar to the rugged, yet generous nature of that truly untamed place. Now at home in Montana, her blacksmith shop is nestled in the mountains and surrounded by aspen and pine trees, wildflowers, and a menagerie of wildlife. Quality of life and quality of goods are paramount to Alexandra. She hopes through her art to share timeless beauty in pieces that she hand forges using traditional and modern techniques.
