stainless bulat: Woodsman-4 full tang
Description
Contemporary Russian manufacturers strive to produce knives from a material as close as possible to historical, i.e., carbon, bulat steel. Since the steel thus obtained 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 "Bulatnyj Nozh" company. Stainless bulats 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.
The "Jegier-4" blade, like the knife of the same name, has a full flat grind.
Blades in the raw state (unsharpened).
