What is Damascus steel? Mosaic damask.
Damascus steel sometimes seems like something ephemeral and unreal, which came to us from the depths of the ages, the times of knights and crusades. Few knife material is surrounded by such a deep veil of myths and legends, enhancing curiosity and admiration. What is Damascus steel? Is it realistic to buy real Damascus steel? What is the truth in these stories, and what is fiction?
First of all, we will have to debunk the myth about the very origin of Damascus steel. The homeland of her invention is not Damascus at all, as is commonly believed. The first references to the production of this material are found as early as 1300 BC. e. in Eastern Asia. But inventors from different countries came to the welded manufacturing method, which is still used today, almost at the same time. It is known that in the III century the Roman Empire was the supplier of Damascus, in the XI century - Iran. The heyday of Damascus as steel for knives and swords dates back to the 13th century, when production moved from Asian centers to the territory of Germany. Then why "Damascus steel"? The answer is simple and concise - at that time, the city of Damascus was the center of arms trade, where you could buy Damascus steel knives for any taste. As a result, they were given the name of the city of the same name.
What is remarkable about this material? In ancient times, it was believed that Damascus steel has a truly unique strength, hardness and durability. It was believed that she was able to cut chain mail like butter. A significant contribution to the emergence of such myths was made by novelists of works on knightly themes. In particular, Walter Scott was a fan of this material. What are the features of Damascus steel blades?
The category of Damascus steel includes two types of materials - refined and welding steel. To produce refined Damascus steel, a uniform piece of metal is repeatedly reforged to remove harmful impurities and slag. But since the 18th century, this method was replaced by a more effective one - welding. In this case, heterogeneous material consisting of blanks with different carbon content is subject to reforging. This is how it becomes possible to combine different properties of materials. Materials with different indicators of strength, hardness, elasticity and viscosity complement each other, giving the final product a combination of their properties. The layers of iron are soft, preventing the steel from being too brittle, and the high-carbon components included in the composition provide elasticity and hardness.
At the same time, the disadvantage of Damascus steel is weak resistance to rust due to the large percentage of carbon in the forging elements and the practically zero content of alloying elements. Therefore, after use, Damascus knives should be cleaned of dirt and wiped dry to avoid premature wear. It is worth noting that modern manufacturers have learned to create stainless Damascus steel, which has attracted the attention of fans of this knife material even more.
Previously, materials with different properties and carbon content were combined with welding, alternating folding and forging, and in this way material with different hardness and viscosity was obtained. Thus, at the same time, Damascus steel became hard and flexible enough not to chip and crack with accidental blows or falls. And due to the diffusion of carbon, its content has an average value in the entire workpiece. A more progressive method has become the use of specially designed kharalugs - these are twisted coils of wire made of dissimilar steels, which are subject to further reforging.
Remarkably, the pattern that Damascus steel forms was not the purpose of using twisted kharalugs. During forging and further treatment of the surface with acids, it became a side effect and a kind of symbol of Damascus steel. This is an optical effect that occurs due to the heterogeneity of the forging materials. High-class manufacturers of knives made of Damascus steel achieve not only a leaf pattern on the blade, but also floral patterns and beautiful symmetrical patterns.
Blades made of Damascus steel have long been endowed with supernatural abilities. They were said to cut through mail like butter, cut swords from other steels, and knights supposedly valued such steel as much as gold. Unfortunately or fortunately, it is not well-argued. Rather, it is a poetic deviation and exaggeration of the characteristics of this material. Blades made of Damascus steel are indeed very strong and hard, have excellent flexibility, but at the same time they will not be able to cut other types of steel or possess magical properties. Numerous metallurgical studies have not proven that Damascus steel is able to violate any laws of physics.
Today, you can buy Damascus steel in a wide variety. Modern manufacturers have high-tech production methods that minimize the amount of slag and harmful impurities. The use of Damascus in the production of knives is quite common - many tourist, hunting and pocket knives can be selected with a blade made of this material. They can be considered premium products due to aesthetic and mechanical performance. Such multi-layered, aesthetically attractive blades will be an excellent option for a gift to a dear person who understands beautiful, effective and functional knives.
Karelian birch. Karelian birch.
Botanical name: Betula pendula var. carelica Karelian birch, Birch family (lat. Betulaceae) order Bukotsvetnye (lat. Fagales).
Karelian birch is a variety, one of the variations of drooping birch (lat. Betula pendula). Also, drooping birch has synonymous names - warty birch, silver birch, weeping birch.
Growth area
Karelian birch is an anomaly called stem pitting syndrome and is therefore relatively rare in nature. Its natural range extends from the western part of Norway and Sweden to the southeast of Karelia, to the southern part of the Baltic countries, Poland and Belarus.
Botanical description
Hanging birch var. carelica is known around the world for its amazingly beautiful patterned wood with dark specks - this is how stem pitting syndrome manifests itself. Unfortunately, these trees are very rare, and their artificial cultivation is associated with a lot of difficulties.
The characteristic pattern of Karelian birch wood is created as a result of the pathology of the functioning of the cambium. The abnormality is manifested in a large accumulation of parenchymal cells in the thickness of the wood, which create an original pattern.
Karelian birch - deciduous tree 15-20 m in height. The trunk is about 40 cm in diameter. The bark is golden brown at first, but then it turns into white with large tubercles and thickenings - striations. Svilyu is called a special wood. This is when part of the bark remains inside the thickening of the woods, which creates a characteristic pattern. Significant tortuosity or strong narrowing of the trunk can be seen on birch trees aged 5-6 years.
Inconspicuous flowers are collected in inflorescences - male and female earrings on the same tree. Immature male catkins are present on the tree during the winter, while female catkins develop in the spring, shortly after the leaves open. The leaf blade is triangular in shape with a wide base and a wedge-shaped apex, with a doubly serrated edge.
Small 1-2 mm winged seeds ripen in late summer on hanging, cylindrical catkins 2-4 cm long and 7 mm wide. The seeds are very numerous and separated from each other by scales; when ripe, the entire earring crumbles.
Properties of Karelian birch wood
The wood is very decorative, resembling wood marble. Hard (according to Brinell - about 3.5), viscous, heavy (density: 750-770 kg / m3) practically does not split. Well tinted and dyed. The color is darker than that of drooping birch. On a light background, dark red-brown curls, stripes, which creates a wavy pattern.
Application
Birch svit is a valuable and sought-after wood. Mostly veneer is made due to a small supply of wood. Used to create exclusive furniture. Karelian is widely represented in the products of arts and crafts.
Interesting fact
In 1990 Finnish artist Akseli Valdemar Gallen-Kallela participated in the Paris World's Fair. Furniture and other works of art from Karelian birch, which the artist created to decorate the pavilion of the Russian Empire, received gold and silver medals.
