Metallography of medieval knives from Malín (Bohemia)
Original language description
Nine 10th to 13th century knives from the site of Malín, have been metallographically examined. Seven knives are dated from the 10th to 11th centuries, when Malín was a stronghold held by Slavník (until the end of the 10th century) and later by the Premyslid princely families. All the knives are of good or even excellent quality and two of them even rank among prestigious pieces (both decorated with strips of phosphoric iron, the first one being straight, the second having a wavy lower edge). In the half of the 12th century, the settlement existing on the site of the previous stronghold became the property of the neighbouring Cistercian monastery. In the half of the 13th century, when the monastery suffered from a lack of financial resources, two men were buried in a single grave. One of the knives bears a wavy decorative strip, the other is decorated with a wavy strip and pattern-welding and belongs to the rare type of pattern-welded knives known from the Czech and Polish territories.
