stainless bulat: Glukhar
Description
Modern Russian manufacturers strive to produce knives from a material as close as possible to historical, i.e., carbon, bulat steel. Since the steel obtained in this way is susceptible to corrosion, Russian blacksmiths sometimes add chromium to it, and what results is called "stainless bulat". This category includes knives from the Zhbanov forge, also known as the "Bulat Nozh" company. Stainless bulat knives from Zhbanov are hardened in such a way that the hardness on the cutting edge is slightly (approx. 2 HRC) higher than on the butt. Blades in raw (unsharpened) state.
