The Yakutian knife is globally known for its exceptional durability, sharpness, and multifunctional versatility, with a design unlike any other blade in the world. The origin of the knife is closely tied to the nomadic lifestyle and the harsh, cold environment of the region. It’s often serves every family for generations, becoming an enduring symbol of tradition and craftsmanship.

As a Japanese, it’s interesting to see such craftsmanship from another culture. Japanese knives may not be multi-functional but each type of knife is made to be suited for specific purpose. Forging and grinding of knives are passed down from generations to generations just like Yakutian tradition.

The perfectionism that the Japanese are known to strive for can be achieved by those who specialize. Thus all the various specialist knife or blade wielders having tools designed to do one thing as perfectly optimal as possible, seems befitting of this attitude.

Old Chinese records on Turkic people always comment on their superior metal skills, which is interesting for a nomadic people because they need to be close to iron ore deposits. In Japan, places like BIZEN (備前) became famous for their swords because iron sand was common in the Izumo region. The Gokturks (突厥) were recorded as the 「鍛鉄奴隷」or the "Iron-making serfs/slaves" of the Mongolic Rouran Khaganate (柔然). The various Turkic people living in/around their traditional homeland in the Altai Mountains to the Lake Baikal region are also known for their unique metal works even today. The Turkic/Mongolic metal musical instruments are very unique too. (Yakuts are Turkic tribes who were pushed out of the Lake Baikal region during the Mongol expansion in the 13th century.) Superior metal works most likely helped the Turkic nomads in everything from weapons, armor, helmets, and horse-riding. It's probably one of the reasons why Turkic nomadic tribes like the Huns, Avars, Bulgars, or Khazars, where able to reach and rule modern-day Hungary, Romania, Ukraine, Southern Russia by the 5th and 6th century. The Cossack swords, bows, clothing, dances, and hairstyle have Tatar/Turkic/Mongolic influence. (Cossack is also a Turkic word.)

There is much to be said for good "working" knives; tools for everyday use. Several have already said they would like one, as would I. Thank you for bringing Mikhail's story to us. Your stories about Yakutia are wonderfully done. We appreciate how you share with the world this interesting and beautiful life

This is so amazing for me to see. My great grandfather was a Yakutian knife maker, although this tradition was broken after his generation, with the family coming to canada, and the next generations becoming more and more disconnected from the culture. So many beautiful blades that he made are in posession of family on my mother's side. I've always admired them and their craftmanship, and wished I knew more about how he made them. He passed away when I was very little, and I never knew much about his life or work... there were also some language barriers while he was still alive. Thank you so much for what you do, documenting and sharing all of this. It is wonderful being able to see so many parts of Yakutia.

Knife is the most universal tool of them all. This is really practical art. Honest and straight forward. Really nice. It reminds me of the Japanese deba fish butchery knives what with the sturdy spine. I would like to have one made by him in the size shown for fishing and cutting a willow stringer out in the field. Cleaning the fish and building the cook fire. And just to admire simple beauty reminded of where it came from and how. Good show about a genuine craftsman master. Fabulous view into a different world apart; worth remembering.
