Zlatoust

In other languages the city is sometimes called Ызлататыс (Izlataltıs)[8] or Зылатаус[9] (Zılataus) in Tatar and Залатауыс[10] in Bashkir.

In the early 19th century, Pavel Anosov made the first Russian bulat steel blades in Zlatoust.

[12] To establish production, more than a hundred experts were invited from renowned arms centers in Europe, including Solingen and Klingenthal (Germany).

In summer 1816, the first batch of Zlatoust blades was sent to Saint-Petersburg, both combat weapons and decorated samples.

The flying winged horse was a favorite element of many of Bushuyev's engravings, so he was given a nickname Ivan the Wingy (Ivanko Krylatko).

[2] As a municipal division, the City of Zlatoust is incorporated as Zlatoustovsky Urban Okrug.
