Detailed analysis of materials and characteristics
The blade made of damask steel with a hardness of 65 HRC is a combination of outstanding wear resistance and high cutting ability. Bulat is known for its unique patterned pattern and unique balance between strength and sharpness: the cutting edge keeps sharpening for a long time and does not crumble even with active use. However, high hardness requires care – it is not recommended to use a knife for cutting hard materials and working with metal or stone surfaces to avoid discoloration of the blade.
The blade thickness of 2.4 mm, width of 28 mm and length of 123 mm create a balance between the convenience of precise cutting and sufficient strength. This geometry is great for versatile tasks, from cutting food in nature to cleaning and small-scale woodwork.
The shape of the Drop Point blade is a universal solution. The sharp tip provides precise control when performing delicate operations, and the smooth curve of the cutting edge is ideal for slicing and cutting, making the knife an excellent helper in tourist, hunting and household tasks.
The handle made of stabilized Karelian birch with nickel silver inserts is a combination of natural beauty and durability. The stabilized wood is not affected by moisture, perfectly retains its structure and color even in difficult operating conditions, and nickel silver adds strength, noble shine and additional protection from mechanical damage to the handles. The comfortable shape, 125 mm length and ergonomic profile guarantee a secure grip even when the palm gets wet.
The leather sheath ensures accurate and safe storage of the knife, protecting the blade from corrosion and accidental damage.
Scope of application, advantages and limitations
- The best choice for active tourists, lovers of hunting, fishing and trekking – the knife will cope with most camp work, game processing, fish cutting and even minor woodwork.

- Limitations: It is not intended for heavy work on chopping, opening metal cans, opening bones, or for use as a tire iron. Damask steel requires careful handling, avoid impact loads on the blade.
Care and maintenance
- It is recommended to regularly clean and wipe the blade dry after use, especially after contact with moisture or aggressive organic media.
- To maintain the cutting edge, use finishing sharpening with water or diamond stones with minimal metal removal.
