Adzes are ancient cutting tools with a blade perpendicular to the handle, used by Arctic Indigenous peoples for carving wood, bone, ivory, stone lamps (like qulliq), kayaks, tools, and more. Blades were often stone (e.g., nephrite/jadeite), copper, or later iron, hafted to handles of wood, antler, bone, or ivory using sinew, hide thongs, or lashings.

An Eskimo Wood Bird Adz is a traditional Inuit (or Eskimo) adze tool used for woodworking, where the handle or haft features a bird-shaped or bird effigy carving.
