Very nice work. It's from a time when one purchased a packet of blades and it lasted forever because you just kept using the Radium to strop them sharp over and over. Interesting contrast with today, the age of disposable plastic razors. Thanks for the video, Mr. Fabrik.
For most of this video I thought that was a pencil sharpener - I couldn't figure out what the leather was for or why you selected an old razor blade - made a lot more sense at the end 🤣 Great video!!! 👍
@@nikibordeaux I wonder if we've both been watching the same restoration videos - quite a few pencil sharpener restorations - but honestly I really enjoyed them 😂
Old trends are funny. There's a cocktail invented in the 20s called the 'Aviation' - because flying was a cool trend for the cool kids - that as you might guess has nothing to do with flying. Well, you might 'fly' if you had a few.
Quel régal de voir cette restauration. L'objet est tellement rouillé qu'on a du mal à imaginer le résultat final ! Avis aux collectionneurs !!! Merci et bravo, comme d'habitude.
I wouldn't mind one of these. Started using a safety razor a couple years back, and while the blades are cheap it still seems wasteful to discard them after 5 or so uses.
My age is not important anymore when I’ll confess that I remember that every kid in school had one of these pencil sharpeners on its own desk until the supply of pencils at school was greatly reduced because everyone had sharpened their pencil within two days! Exactly a year later we all received an inkwell with a dip pen on our desk. I don't know what cost more, the sharpened pencils or the stains in our clothes, floors and desks let alone what our body parts looked like?! Fingers, faces………..and so on❤😂 And nowadays? We elderly peoples have to ask our grandchildren how to switch on a bloody computer😂😂 Merci beaucoup my friend for sharing this video 🙏
That was surprisingly hilarious! You had to restore the razor blade to test the sharpener! Loved the video, keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!
Magnificent job you did restoring that old razor blade sharpener to working order. It looks much better than before and it works like a charm too. Excellent work.
I think that was a pretty good restoration. The razor could slice garlic but that doesn't mean it's sharp enough to shave with. I think it would work better with some stropping compound on the leather. Thanks for the video.
Hey there really nice restoration a tip you have to wet the leather and they have a honing paste you apply on the damp leather to make it really work well you also treat your razor strope with it to sharpen your straight razor to a fine edge. Same for those blades
Bonjour The Fabrik, encore une très belle vidéo ! On ne se lasse jamais de vos réalisations... Je me demandais si les bandes d'affutage étaient vraiment suffisantes pour garantir un parfait pouvoir coupant, mais cela en a tout l'air. Vos coupes finales sont quasiment au niveau de celles que l'on obtient au labo au microtome :-) ! Bravo !
I think that was the most corroded thing you done so far but now it is absolutely beautiful! The blades really hone well and it is amazing how thin you can slice with it. Thanks for sharing this and I am looking forward to your next tutorial.
Actually, Radium razors were manufactured by Otto Roth Inc., the same outfit that made the Radium Clipper. The company was located at 11-15 E. Runyon Street in Newark, New Jersey.
Can you share how or where you find things to restore? I want to give it a try and starting with something small and simple like this sharpener sounds fun.
Firstly I wanted to ask you which brand of pen knife blades do you use because all I’ve bought in last couple of years were crap but then I realised that you just sharpened them by yourself
Beautiful restoration. But why glue the tags in place? A future restorer will never be able to remove them anymore. Just glueing only the rivets should be enough?

Thank you very much 🙌 Blades were rare and expensive back then

I also thought it's a pencil sharpener 😄

read the title and also pencil sharpeners will have a small round hole in the side for pencils

Radium Sharpener for that great after glow shave!

Well, you might 'fly' if you had a few.
20 years earlier it might have contained actual Radium, they put it in women's makeup! with obvious results.
I am pleased to see this everyday item restored. This truey is from a bygone era in history!
Yes! Always love these immersive transformations!

✅ ~ I think the spider ignored it after sensing it was not alive = fresh, they prefer living prey.
Another fantastic restoration, i love watching your videos
I really appreciate that you show multiple methods of rust removal! I'd like to try some of them out myself.
Grandioso.
Es agradable ver tus restauraciones, relajan la mente, el cuerpo, el alma.
Gracias.
What a fascinating machine . The garlic slicing was a nice touch .
the lil spider ahh so cute!!!
Super très bon travail un objet que je ne connaissais pas comme quoi a tous age on apprend bravo
Merci beaucoup 👍

And the "safety" in the term safety razor is barely accurate...
@@glennsoucy9767 it's safer than it's predecessor, the straight razor. I'd love a straight razor. So classy.
Awesome restoration there brother!

Nicely executed
C'est toujours un si grand plaisir rempli de satisfaction, que de vous regarder restaurer un objet. Wow!
Un grand merci !
Never seen such a machine before. But you did a great job refurbishing it and it seems like it works pretty well... Thumbs Up!
Thank you ! Glad you appreciated it 😘
Je suis à chaque fois en admiration pour tes réalisations
Encore une fois BRAVO bien réussi!
🤓
Nice restoration! I get the most satisfaction of you disassembling your finds.
Hey TF
Another great restoration of a nice little machine.
Take care😊
Beautiful video as always!! Your attention to detail is just "magnifique" 👍💪👏👏👏!
The logo plate is really nice.
One of the few advantages of pitting in the metal is that it probably made an easier to adhere to surface.
Olá Amigo,visitando e fortalecendo aqui do Brasil, bom trabalho.☺🇧🇷
Thank you for sharing another great restoration video. Your skills are very much appreciated.
Nice job, as usual, though it would have been useful to do a cutting test before sharpening to see the difference.
That was surprisingly hilarious! You had to restore the razor blade to test the sharpener! Loved the video, keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!
Another very cool video! Thanks for sharing!
Amazing result ! 👌

I committed about that I wet my strop well and apply that paste works really nice on my folding knife puts a keen edge on it .
That was very cool. If i ever need a 1mm slice of garlic, i know just what to do! Thank you for another great video ❤❤

Merci Yves, je ne suis pas un pro de l’affûtage mais le avant/après montre que ces anciens affûteurs sont quand même efficaces !
Brilliant

Some of the most impressive videos on TH-cam. Thank you for making them. Did you try to shave with that blade?
Thank you !! I didn’t shave my hair with that blade 😅👍
superbe restauration comme d'habitude.
Merci beaucoup 👍

Very nice restoration mr. Fabrik ! A treat for the eye to watch it getting it's original state 😊
Sensacional!

Cool!

Who never knew there would be a dead yellowjacket in the sharpener?
Hope you will restore another train at some point.
I’ll do a train soon 👍
@TheFabrik Looking forward
Bravo!
Ah...una "sdruscia" portatile affila-lamette da barba per rasoi di sicurezza!😲
Yaaay powder melt!! ✌🏻🎨☕️

Superb ❤
عمل متقن..بالتوفيق
Первый раз вижу такой аппарат.
So who came up with the design first or rather who used it first? The pencil sharpener or the razor blade sharpener?
"La lame scientifique"!! 😂
Firstly I wanted to ask you which brand of pen knife blades do you use because all I’ve bought in last couple of years were crap but then I realised that you just sharpened them by yourself
Is this from the same Radium company responsible for Radium glowing paint?
Great job! Another Utuber restorer claims that if one uses leather to sharpen the blade it's called "stropping". (unsure of the spelling)
Точилка для лезвия, офигеть, никогда такого не видел! Фенькью!
Do you sell the things you restore? I’d love that blade sharpener
I usually keep my items. Can you PM me ? Thanks !
Radium, because what we need is a radioactive razor.
Kompliment 👍👍👍
Qué hermoso 🤩
Better than origilan❤❤
I hope that doesn't have a radium glaze... Is it radioactive?
Kinda thing you saw all over the place then disposable ones came and well they lasted until grandad passed or dad no longer needed it

Oh deer, hole in the sandblaster glove fingers.
What wow really ? Didn’t notice that 🤷♂️
@@TheFabrik 05:20 Two cracks clearly visible in what looks like the middle finger.
Why don't use the Nickel plating is more easy the rest 💯👍🏻🇻🇪
I usually do 🙌
10 years without a video .... Can you restore another train?
More trains very soon ;)
Pulling screws out with a pair of tweezers? What’s THAT all about?!
Much better than with my fat fingers 😅
what spider is that? 0:43
I have no idea 🤷♂️
@@TheFabrik ah ok
Any one can explain me. How the leather can sharp blade please?
I have no idea…. But it works ;)
Beautiful restoration. But why glue the tags in place? A future restorer will never be able to remove them anymore. Just glueing only the rivets should be enough?
wow
Am I the only one watching this and thinking "Why are you not wearing gloves?"
I used to wear gloves when I started this channel. Many people told me ‘why are you wearing gloves’ 😅
I have a general policy of staying away from things labeled "Radium" 😅
❤❤❤
Why would razor blades be rusted if they were sealed.
Sealed since 80 years…
Would have been a lot better if you showed it sharping a pencil!!
It doesn't sharpen pencils lol
Fungsi benda itu apa?
👍
جميل لو توضع كزينة في الحمام
Dude you don't need to use so much WD-40, all you need is a little WD-40 and let it sit for a while then start on the screws
Well… this is what I did ! I let the WD40 for a few hours.. Heat was the best way I guess…
❤
AH Yes ,from a time when everything was not one use and throw it away! Great job !!
Thank you 🙌
