This post from u/The_Alaskan focuses on Alutiiq people of Alaska, but this comment has a wealth of information. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/14vrz7/comment/c7hagmn

However, one important distinction is that the Inuit of Greenland did in fact make iron tools from meteorites, unlike the Alutiiq pre contact.
