Restoration of an Old Hunting Knife! The most Beautiful Handle
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 เม.ย. 2022
- Today I have an old hunting knife for restoration.
This is a knife of one of four in the lot that I purchased!
There is one oddity, none of these knives have a handle, although there are pins for mounting!
Restoration process.
I used electrolysis for rust removal, I used a steel plate as an anode, and the knife itself was the cathode!
For the handle I chose a block of stabilized wood (our craftsmen make them of amazing beauty!!!). In this state, the wood is much harder and denser than a regular bar, thus my new handle will be ETERNAL)))!
I also used a special spacer for knife handles (G10, 1 mm).
I assembled everything with epoxy glue, during assembly I lost my nail on the finger of my left hand (do not try to twist something with a screwdriver if this part is in your palm), could not work for two days, and then completed the processing of the handle.
I treated the handle with wood oil, hand polished it with a cotton ribbon, and was amazed by the beauty of the stabilized wood!!!
I really liked the result, I hope you do too.
There are many more cool and interesting videos on the channel, I will be grateful if you watch some of them!

the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
When that wood oil went on that handle just popped! Truly beautiful!
❤❤❤
Loved watching the whole process but what made this so special was listening to the outdoor sounds in the background . The birds chirping , an owl and of course the howl of a wolf or wolves .

That's awesome! I got to restore a knife last year that was passed down to my Pop. It was originally a butcher's knife forged in England in the early 1900's, but had been in a fire of some sort; the tang was melted and was missing a heap of useable pin holes so I had to turn it into a hidden tang knife. It probably hadn't been used in 60+ years but still held an incredible edge and was hard enough that I didn't have to re-heat treat it.
3:20 now that’s a man that’s proud of his wood 🧍🏻♀️
I love this work, especially because he shows us how it’s done with basic tools, the kind most of us have in our sheds.
Hello! Thanks for support.
Beautiful work. The wood really makes it special and the pitting left behind is a nice touch. Glad it's back to a functional condition.
Thank you! It was interesting to read your opinion!
When I think I dont have enough tools I'm going to remember that this guy RIP cut a 6in piece of wood on a vise that was shaking with a push cut hand saw.
😁😁😁😁🙈🙈🙈

I will now try to explain with the final scene.
According to TH-cam analytics, 10 percent of viewers watch the finale, and the longer it lasts, the worse the video rating becomes. Therefore, many authors do not delay the end of the video.
If you want, I will publish a photo of the knife in the "Community" especially for you?
Perfect restoration preserving the “old look” of blade! Great did!
thanks for the support🙌
Your a bad man brother ! Mad skills
My first time watching your channel. I like that you used simple, inexpensive tools that most people have.
I was both disappointed and pleased that you left some pitting and didn't restore the knife to "like new" condition.
The handle scales are gorgeous.
Job well done.
Thank you for your sincere feedback!
Заготовки на ручки можно было и не оплачивать, перевернул и вся проблема решена

Great job! The remaining pits just add character to the knife. Beautiful handle material. Well done!
Thanks for the support!
Don't let the naysayers and the "experts" bring you down- you did this with what you had available to you. I'd be proud to own a knife such as that.
Good enough for the very best flea markets in the world!
Beautiful!!!
❤❤❤
I'm an old guy and through my foggy memory I recall a factory knife with that shape guard. I believe it's a Rigid, and I think they were made in Colorado

You were right. Gorgeous handle!
Absolutely Beautiful and Awesome blade!!! You have an amazingly beautiful blade!!!
Thanks for support.
Glad you liked it!
Let's say that your knife was well heat treated at first. Depending on the process and the metal type, we can safely say that harden was between 50 to 60 HRC. And already temper one or two times. So the austenite is now fixed and the steel is no longer under stress.
As you heat the metal again, you destroy that tempering process, even past 200 degrees.
As we can see, you were close to 400 degrees, maybe more as we can see a slight red at the end of your heating process.
So now your knife is considered no longer hardened, almost no austenite, back to martensite, and a big grain structured steel. Probably under 30 HRC...
The only thing you could have done is redo the heat treat process. But due to the decarburation, you will never have the same hardened quality then at the start.
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind for my next project!
I'm just learning. And learned a lot from helpful comments like yours. thanks again!
@@ITBR_Restoration no troubles. Heat treatment of steel is quite a complicated subject. It's expected to make mistakes at first.
However knife making community can be quite harch and incomprehensive towards mistake like that. And can bring you some hate for no real reason, just to warn you.. Great job anyway!
@@elliotmartin2045 Thanks for warning)
@@elliotmartin2045 I've always been told if it's to hot to touch then it's to hot. Is that an accurate statement?
Too hot is when you start to see colors on the blade. Too hot to touch would be around 150ish degrees Fahrenheit whereas just “too hot” in general is pretty much anything over 300 Fahrenheit.
great job on the handle.
Awesome restoration video!
Putting the oil on is always my favorite part that’s when the real beauty of the handle comes out and you can see it for what it truly is nice job
This is also my any stage in the work!
Браво мастеру! Дал вторую жизнь ножу, сделанному с любовью и знанием дела предыдущим мастером из хорошо закаленного металла. Класс! 👍👏
👍👍👍
Cool my friend... Cool.
Wow , what a craftsman. Thanks Bearhunter5
Thanks)))
I love the pitting that was left, looks old and new at the same time. What an intriguing choice of wood too. I haven't heard of stabilized wood before, that's really neat
I think the werewolf howling in the background in some way contributed to the success of the knife.
DESDE ARGENTINA LE FELICITAMOS Y AGRADECEMOS EL HABER COMPARTIDO SU SABIDURIA.....GRACIAS...
I was so looking forward to seeing what that wood looked like finished. Worth the wait! Unusual and gorgeous.
Bravo! Beautiful restoration and gorgeous handle.
Thanks for appreciating my work.
Now I am making a belt grinder, and in the future I will process all the handles and blades on it.
Very nice work without many tools love that! Congratulations
Thanks for support. You're right, it was a simple repair, without complex equipment and tools.
Beautiful 👏👏👏
I really enjoyed this restoration! Nice to see someone work with the same tools i already have in my garage…well done!
Thank you. I have a goal. I want to show the audience that you can do what you love with minimal tools.
@@ITBR_Restoration you succeeded! “Subscribed”!
Great looking knife RITBR! Would love to see you make a sheath for the blade in the future! 🔪
Thanks!
I would be interested in experience in the manufacture of scabbards!
You're handles are perfect. I watch knife restoration just for handle
Beautiful handle. Cruddy looking blade.
AGREGO:!!
F. E. L. I. C. I. D. A. D. E. S. !!!
BELISIMO TU TRABAJO!!
Awesome video as always! Just a tip, next time you build a knife put a pin in the hole after you drill the first pin hole. I realize you had everything clamped up but you still run a high risk of everything shifting and the holes not lining up. 👍🏼
Thanks for the support and great advice!
Beautiful work on the handle , funny , in the beginning when you tapped on the blade , my son said " Dad l think it's lunch time ... " great work on this knife.
Funny situation)))
I really like the blue inserts and the pins you used on the handle! !! !!!
I love these inserts too!👍
Excellent work

I love the blue and yellow in the wood and the natural pitting in the blade. A nice, stark contrast from the beautifully crafted handle and those special pins for holding the grip scales on top it off perfectly. :) Beautiful knife. I'm definitely subscribing. :)

Worderful work thanks
Excellent refurbishment/ restoration, I like it, nice paint, hammered finish works well on machines and the double rubber sealed bearing was an excellent choice also . Thanks for the video
Looks awesome! Definitely softened the steel quite a bit by heating it that much though. It'll probably be around 45-50HRC. If its a simple high carbon steel, tempering is usually done around 250C, anything beyond that will get it pretty soft. Should still be quite tough, just might go dull quite fast.
Thanks for the support and advice! I will definitely check the hardness of the metal as soon as possible!
@@opinionsvary Thanks for the helpful tips!👍

Omg, the colors in that wood and the details in the pins. Awsome job 💪🏽

Lord have mercy. Not going to lie dude, that is hands down one of the most beautiful knives I've ever seen. I cried a little. Lmao

Как всегда по красоте 🔥🔥🔥
Благодарю!😉
Lovely result, you did a great job on this. I did shudder a bit when i watched you holding it directly below the saw when you were cutting the timber for the handle though. Hope your finger injury healed quickly! 😮
Well done. Especially for having minimalist tools 🔧. Shows you don't need a shop full of tools to do amazing things. 👍
Yes you are right. Thank you!
Excelente vídeo. Restauração fantástica e um trabalho meticuloso.
Obrigado pela visualização e feedback!
Excellent craftsmanship. I personally did not like the modern blue part put in with the wooden parts. Should have been something like dark grey or dark brown even. Black or perhaps white would work too, if you wish it to stand out.
Thanks for the support!
This was my first knife repair experience. I think if you look at my later videos you will find them interesting.
@@ITBR_Restoration Thanks, I will.
How come your English is so good? Do you have someone helping you out as it's such a large channel these days?
I liked how the blue spacer matched with the tones of the handle. It made the blue in the wood stand out.
@@tribeofshugbazz I personally disagree with that. It's a very different contrast, a plain plastic green. Better match than bright red or yellow obviously though.
WOOW AMAZING..
😉Thanks!
Amazing work
Nice work! I like to bevel the sides of the front of the scales before gluing them on. It's a lot easier. I also tape off the sides of the blade to keep the glue from going on it. Don't squeeze the clamps too hard, you squeeze too much epoxy out. I like to drill holes in the steel and dimples into the wood. It provides better adhesion.
I’m a girl never fully understanding what’s going on, but that was incredibly satisfying and I loved the difference! That wood definitely was the best choice
Tara, Thank you for watching and commenting.
I'm glad you liked the result!

Awesome job bro
Thanks for the support bro!!!👍
To blue with boiled linseed oil you need to heat it up past the smoke point which is about 110C. Going to 200C will ensure ample temperature. 400C is way too high, so I hope it didn't ruin the steel tempering.
thanks, everything is fine with the hardening! hardening can be lost if heated above 600C.
@@ITBR_Restoration hey just so you know the temperature scale you may ne looking at for tempering sounds like it's for high alloy stainless steel. This blade was more than likely carbon steel which tempers at a much lower temperature 200c to 232c. That blade and the colors you went to tell me that the blade is not very hard.

Bandaged finger - the result of non-compliance with safety precautions😁😁😁
@@ITBR_Restoration so you had a boo boo. Safety First Remember.
No bandsaw dude? When you broke out the handsaw to cut that gorgeous wood I was like TF he doing? Lol. Some work to clean up the pitting on the blade would have been worthwhile to match that beauty handle. Nice work tho.
Thanks!!!
Ies
Not everyone has the money to afford all of the nice tools.
@@pootmahgoots8482 "Nice" tools is subjective. You can spend way too much on things you can get much cheaper and do the same job. My bandsaw cost me $125. Not out of most folks budgets lol. If it was a lathe or CNC, well...
@@krob5375 expense is both relative and subjective to the individual. $125 could be chump change for others while it could be the determining factor of whether or not someone can eat for the week. I don't know where RITBR lives in terms of country but he does have subtitles that are in Cyrillic so he might be in Ukraine or Russia where he can't just go to a store and pick up all the tools to make his job easier. I could be completely off though, I'm not sure.

In the near future there will be another knife, an older one, and it will have a more beautiful handle!
Nicely done !
Amazing result! A lot of hard work! Many thanks for the video!
Beautiful knife even with the pitting on the blade and the handle is amazing I love the colour ( do you know what wood it is and what was used to dye it) I would be concerned about the hardness though after being heated so far and quenched the way it was but it looks great even if it won’t be the sharpest
You're right! Perhaps this is not the sharpest knife on TH-cam))) But I really like these pits on the blade, and this handle !!!
This wood is ash. If you search youtube for "wood stabilization" you will find a lot of videos of what this process looks like!
I hope I was able to answer your question.
I did not make this bar, I bought it from an experienced craftsman (about $ 10)

What a beautiful piece of fine craftmanship..
over tempered that blade, went way past blue, ideal colour for tempering is straw coloured, and no need to heat that much to blue with oil
Wow
Thanks! I had other information regarding the temperature for bluing in oil.
Oh I get it now..so he was trying to blue it? So his instructions probably didn’t take knife edge into consideration.. did it keep an edge or did the process destroy edge retention? For the future I would just buy chemical gun blue it’s cheap enough. Nice video bro
