Unconventional methods of processing materials for knives
Bražina, Jakub ; Němec, Karel (referee) ; Doležal, Pavel (advisor)
This thesis focuses on the issue of unconvetional cutlery materials, their application for production, and the processing of a hunting knife. The readers are aquainted with cutlery issues in the search section, where the basic characteristics and properities are written. The next part describes the various metallic and non-metallic materials and their possible properities of processing and production. This thesis also deals with the surface protection of these cutlery materials. The second main part describes construction design, material selection, heat treatment, and with surface treatment of the hunting knife.

Iron bloom from Žďár nad Sázavou in the light of questions of phosphoric iron in medieval cutlery
Hošek, Jiří ; Malý, K. ; Zavyalov, V.
The examined bloom came from the North of Žďár nad Sázavou, formerly a 13th century medieval town abolished between 1262 and 1276. The bloom was uncovered in pit No.551 (pieces of slag and remnants of furnace were found besides the bloom) situated in the area with traces of metallurgical activities. Investigation of the object revealed that the bloom consisted of inhomogeneous phosphorus-rich metal which presumably was not intended for ordinary treatment. The bloom may be a result of unsuccessful smelting either a semiproduct of a material intended for special purposes. The phosphoric iron was used in production of luxury medieval knives for example. With regards to problems to evidence local luxury knife-making, the semiproducts with elevated phosphorus content could attest an appropriate background for a local luxury-knife production.
