Detailed analysis of the properties and features of the knife
- Steel of the blade is bulat (hardness HRC 65): Bulat is a historically renowned steel characterized by high hardness, unique structure and expressive surface pattern. The hardness of 65 HRC indicates outstanding wear resistance and excellent ability to keep sharpening for a long time: the blade remains sharp for a long time even with intensive use. Damask resists mechanical damage and discoloration of the cutting edge well. However, very high hardness requires careful handling: strong lateral loads, impacts on bone, or contact with hard materials can lead to chipping.
- Resistance to moisture and corrosion:Bulat is inferior to modern high-alloy steels in terms of corrosion resistance: when in contact with moisture or an aggressive environment, it requires regular cleaning and oil treatment. In conditions of dampness or frequent contact with products, it is recommended to pay special attention to care.
- Handle material — stabilized Karelian birch (purple) and black hornbeam: Stabilized birch is a unique natural material that has undergone special treatment to increase durability, moisture resistance and shape stability. Black hornbeam is a valuable and dense wood material with high wear resistance, resistant to deformation and cracking. Both materials are not afraid of water and temperature changes, they fit perfectly in your hand. Thanks to the combined handle, the knife does not slip, even if the palm is wet, and gives the hand a pleasant, warm feeling when gripping.
- The shape of the blade is Normal Blade: The classic universal geometry ensures excellent penetration into the material and predictable cutting behavior. This shape is convenient for most household, tourist and hunting tasks: from cutting food to working on wood or leather.
- Dimensions: The blade length of 148 mm and a thickness of 2.4 mm make the knife convenient for delicate and medium-duty work, and also allow you to control the cutting force. The 130 mm long handle is optimal for a secure grip, even with a glove.
- Genuine leather scabbard: Strong and durable, they ensure the safety of the blade when carrying and protect it from the environment.
- Easy maintenance: Bulat requires delicate straightening and regular cleaning after use. Only a high-quality abrasive is suitable for sharpening: damask holds the cutting edge perfectly, but requires care when restoring sharpening. The handle made of stabilized wood and hornbeam requires almost no maintenance, it is enough to wipe it with a soft cloth from time to time.
Optimal conditions and tasks of application
- The knife is ideal for hiking, hunting, fishing, camping, as well as for universal use in nature and in everyday life.
- The classic shape of the blade makes it easy to carve meat, clean fish, prepare food, cut wood and do small handicrafts.
- The high aesthetics and uniqueness of natural materials make the knife a wonderful gift, a collection item or a status item.
Limitations and contraindications
- It is not recommended to use it for heavy household or power work, for example, for chopping bones, opening canned food or metal work.
- The steel needs regular maintenance: after contact with moisture, the blade should be wiped and oil applied.
- It is not suitable for users who require complete corrosion resistance and minimal maintenance (for example, for marine applications).
Unique advantages and aesthetics
-
A damask blade is not only a working tool, but also an object with a rich history: damask has been considered a symbol of the highest skill of gunsmiths for centuries.
- The combination of purple stabilized Karelian birch and black hornbeam creates a spectacular, bright and individual handle — each knife has a unique pattern and coloring.
- Handmade work guarantees attention to detail, the highest quality of execution and the individuality of each piece.
Conclusions and recommendations
This knife is designed for connoisseurs of authentic materials, high quality and expressive aesthetics. It is ideal for travelers, hunters, anglers and anyone who appreciates a truly sharp tool for versatile hiking and household tasks. It will also become a luxurious gift or part of a collection. It is not recommended for extreme strength tasks and operation in conditions of constant high humidity without regular maintenance.
Care recommendations: After use, thoroughly clean the blade, wipe it dry and periodically treat it with oil. A dry wipe is sufficient for the handle — due to the stabilization, the wood does not swell or crack.
