Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
Blade steel — Damask (hardness 65 HRC):Bulat is known for its unique balance of exceptional hardness, durability and decorativeness. The hardness of 65 HRC provides impressive wear resistance, allowing the cutting edge to remain sharp for a long time even during intensive use. Bulat is less prone to chipping than modern powder steels of similar hardness, due to its special structure with micro-lamellae.
Resistance to moisture and corrosion:Bulat requires regular maintenance, as it contains a high amount of carbon and, unlike stainless steels, can be susceptible to corrosion during prolonged contact with moisture. To prevent rust, it is recommended to wipe the blade dry after use and periodically treat it with oil.
Ease of maintenance:Damask lends itself well to sharpening with traditional stones, however, due to its high hardness, it requires high-quality abrasive materials and some experience. But the sharpness lasts longer, which reduces the frequency of maintenance.
Blade Shape — Drop Point: Drop Point forms a versatile, comfortable blade, characterized by durability, control and good penetrating ability. This profile is great for most jobs, from grocery cutting and tourism to hunting and small household tasks. The straight line of the butt with a smooth descent to the tip makes the knife safe and effective when working with different types of materials.
Handle — stabilized Karelian birch (purple): Stabilized wood perfectly tolerates changes in humidity and temperature, is not susceptible to cracking, swelling and deformation. Karelian birch is famous for its unique pattern, and stabilization highlights its natural beauty and makes it durable. The ergonomic length (130 mm) fits comfortably in the palm of your hand and provides a secure grip even in a wet hand.
The scabbard: The set includes a sturdy leather sheath that securely locks the knife and provides easy transportation.
Scope of application, advantages and limitations
- Optimal tasks: Great for camping trips, fishing, hunting (skinning and butchering prey), food processing, household chores, and collecting. Due to the stable geometry of the blade, it is convenient to use for precise and forceful cuts.
- Holding in the hand:Thanks to the texture and stabilization of birch, the knife holds steady even in wet conditions, does not slip, and does not rub the palm of your hand during prolonged operation.
- Wear resistance and durability:Bulat and stabilized birch are ideally combined for daily and extreme use. The surface of the blade is resistant to micro-damage, the handle retains its appearance and structure for years.
- Limitations: It is not recommended for marine expeditions and prolonged contact with an aggressive humid environment — bulat is not stainless steel. It is also not ideal for rough metalwork or construction tasks where heavy lateral loads are possible.
Unique properties and aesthetics
A damask blade with a historical heritage is a symbol of high status and craftsmanship, each piece is individual. The purple stabilized Karelian birch turns the knife into a real art object: the deep color and expressive pattern not only delight the eye, but also make the product unique. Such a knife is not just a tool, but an item of a proud collection worthy of inheritance.
Care recommendations and final assessment
- Wipe the blade dry regularly after use, especially after contact with moisture or organic materials.
- Keep the knife in dry conditions, periodically apply oil to the blade and handle surface.
- Sharpen with high-quality stones, avoid cheap abrasives.
- Once a season, update the impregnation of stabilized wood with special products for natural wood.
