Title	METALLOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF SELECTED HISTORICAL STEEL KNIVES BLADES
Authors	Pašák, Matej; Kusý, Martin; Sládok, Matúš
Abstract	Microstructural and metallurgic analysis of historical steel knives can reveal the technology which was used for their manufacturing and the used heat treatment. The subjects of research were two knife blades found near Čierna Lehota and Cígeľ, Slovak Republic, located in central Europe. The microstructure of the samples was observed in order to explain the technology of heat treatment of the blades. To gain more complex information about properties of the structure the hardness tests and tests of phosphorus segregation were performed along with the chemical analysis by GDOES and EDX. Observation of the polished samples revealed non-metallic impurities and texture after hand forging of the material.ÂÂ
