Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
Blade steel — Damask, hardness 65 HRC:Bulat is widely known for its exceptional strength and unique structure, providing both high hardness and elasticity. The hardness of 65 HRC guarantees excellent wear resistance of the cutting edge: the knife retains sharpening for a long time even during intensive culinary use. Bulat allows you to filigree cut products without requiring frequent sharpening and providing a clean cut, which is especially important for professional and amateur chefs. However, the increased hardness makes the blade less resistant to strong lateral loads (it is not recommended to use it for cutting bones).
Blade Shape — Drop Point: The versatile geometry with a smooth rise of the butt line provides excellent control over the blade in any culinary task. The Drop Point makes it easier to work with both large and small products, and is great for chopping, slicing, and thinning. The 52 mm width allows you to conveniently guide the products, and the 198 mm length provides the optimal balance between maneuverability and productivity in the kitchen.
Handle — black hornbeam and duralumin: Natural black hornbeam is a valuable and dense wood material that not only emphasizes the status of the product, but also guarantees wear resistance. Hornbeam absorbs moisture well, but after special treatment it acquires excellent water-repellent properties. Duralumin elements add strength and resistance to mechanical damage, as well as make the handle recognizable and effective. The optimal 120 mm length and ergonomic cross-section ensure a comfortable and reliable grip in both dry and slightly damp conditions, which is important when working in the kitchen.
Moisture resistance and corrosion resistance:Damask steel has satisfactory corrosion resistance, but requires regular maintenance to prevent the appearance of stains and rust. It is recommended to thoroughly wipe and store the knife in dry conditions, especially after contact with acids and moisture. Black hornbeam and duralumin are resistant to moisture after processing, which makes the handle durable even with daily use.
Maintenance and care:Due to the high hardness of damask, the knife will cut sharply for a long time, however, the correction should be carried out using musat or fine-grained stone. Bulat does not like sudden temperature changes, as well as prolonged contact with moisture — it is important to ensure dry storage and wipe the blade after washing. It is not recommended to wash the knife in the dishwasher. The hornbeam and duralumin handle does not require complicated maintenance: you can periodically wipe it with oil to preserve aesthetics and additional protection.
Scope of application, advantages and limitations
Optimal tasks: Slicing vegetables, meat, fish, chopping herbs and fruits, thinning products. The versatile blade is suitable for daily culinary tasks in a home or professional kitchen, and thanks to its aesthetics and materials, it will be a worthy gift for a connoisseur of handmade work.
Restrictions: It is not intended for chopping bones, frozen foods, opening cans, or working on hard objects — such operations can damage the sharp cutting edge, especially at a hardness of 65 HRC. It is not recommended for field conditions with high humidity and lack of maintenance.
Unique moments:The hand-forged damask blade carries the historical heritage of the metallurgy of the East and Russia, combining technology and aesthetics. The combination of black hornbeam and duralumin is a rare, stylish combination that emphasizes the status of the owner and the originality of the choice.
Brief advice and care
This knife is ideal for culinary enthusiasts, chefs and connoisseurs of handmade products who are looking for a high-status and effective working tool for the kitchen. It will also become a worthy specimen for collectors thanks to the damask steel and expressive materials of the handle. It is not suitable for those who need a universal knife for heavy field or handicraft work. To maintain exceptional properties, minimal but regular care is recommended: wipe dry after use and store in a leather sheath in a dry place. If necessary, use fine-grained stone or musat.
