Rectangular-shaped dark grey coloured metal blade with white-grey coloured curved handle. Blade is sharpened on one edge only, is attached to the handle by two long pieces of antler that run between the handle and blade, and secured with metal rivets to the blade.

A lightly coloured oblong piece with the centre carved out and a 10 by 0.2 cm slit through which the eyes can see. The middle of the sides are carved out for the piece to fit around the nose. There are two holes at either ends for the string which goes around the head.
Pair of mittens made of caribou skin with thick fur. Each mitten is made of four pieces of skin. One piece forms the back of the mitten, a second piece forms the top of the palm and inside of the thumb. The third piece forms the base of the palm and other side of the thumb. Another piece is attached as cuffs around the wrists. Each mitten has a strip of white caribou fur attached to the wrist; these in turn are tied to each other. The pieces that form the cuffs are attached with the skin to the outside and folded so that the fur shows on the outside as well. The cuffs are not very long, just covering the wrists. The hair on the inside of the right hand thumb (part a) is removed. A black cord is attached to the cuff of the left hand mitten.
Four small brown sticks or pegs.

On top of the runners are seven evenly-spaced rectangular-shaped pieces of bone that are perpendicular to the runners and are attached with white-yellow coloured sinew cording at each of their ends. Attached to each runner and in between the first and second rectangular pieces is a longer piece of sinew cording that twists halfway down the piece.
