Oosik



         


Oosik is a term used in Alaska to describe the penile bone of the walrus. Sometimes as long as 2 feet, it is sometimes polished and used as a handle for knives and other tools. It is also frequently sold as a souvenir to tourists by Native Alaskans, the only people permitted to hunt the walrus today.
