    Pichok or pchak
    - the Uzbek national handmade knife - from time immemorial meant more than just a tool or a combat weapon. This is the attribute of the male costume, a powerful amulet, and participant in many rites and sacraments. That's why the great skill of creating singing, richly decorated blades has been preserved on the territory of Uzbekistan.
    Uzbek knives have peculiarities inherent to the culture of the Central Asia. Therefore, the width of the blade is more than the diametre of the handle. Knives can have typesetting, one-horn or wooden handle.
    A distinctive feature of the Uzbek knives is the brand (tamga). As a rule, the main elements in the tamga are the crescent moon - the symbol of faith, the stars and the symbol of cotton. Previously, it was believed that the number of stars in the mark indicated the number of children of the master or his students. In our time, the stars are, more likely, a tribute to tradition. On modern blades in the mark you can find a stylistic image of anything, everything that is dear to the master.
    Refer to the Uzbek pichok with a piety.
    The Uzbek handmade pichok requires special handling rules. To prevent the formation of rust, it should be kept dry and stored in vertical wooden stands. An important condition for the knife's life is its constant work. The more you use pichok, the longer it will keep its appearance.
    One should rub the knife with fat or oil.
