Tristan Logan Quasa Duffy Taparti always carries a sword when going out. The 29-year-old Rankin Inlet resident says he owns more swords that he “ever cared to count.” Most of his swords are just for training and are not dangerous to the people around him. On Aug. 5, he performed with his sword at the Jammin’ on the Bay Tribute Fest while singing a song to his father, who carved him his first wooden sword when he was five. (Photo by Arty Sarkisian)

George Satuqsi removes a narwhal’s two-metre-long tusk on a warm, sunny Tuesday near Pond Inlet after the rest of the animal was taken away to harvest. Satuqsi is the father of Henry Maktar, 15, who hunted the narwhal — his first — earlier in the day off the coast of the north Baffin hamlet. It took Henry Maktar 40 minutes to bag the narwhal with his harpoon after it was first spotted, said Maktar’s uncle, Bernard Ulaayuk Maktar. This catch will be the first of many in his lifetime, Ulaayuk Maktar predicted. (Photo courtesy of Bernard Ulaayuk Maktar)
