The first two Dremel bits you showed are exactly what I used and the more I tried to fix it the madder I got. Go figure I pick a 500 dollar knife to try polishing it with a Dremel. After I did that I threw it in a drawer and had not looked at it for a while I saw how good you were at fixing up other knives and sent it to you. Thanks for getting it back to its former glory.
Excellent info, Paul. Just picked up some of the 1" for the flexible shaft, now on to invest in some of the 3" for my bench top grinder/buffer. I like the fact that you say they are long-lasting, as I note they aren't cheap! Take care...
This was really helpful, thank you! What a crazy coincidence, I literally just got my first Bark River knife in the mail today - and it's a Crusader like this one! Just a different handle.
Thank you yes it's around $500 my highest is the Bob Kramer Knife on the channel background it's real and was made by him it's was worth around $4000 or more I did two of them for a customer. I have worked on many $1000 -$1500 knives. The best knives are actually a joy to work because they are made so well.
I just love your videos, thanks for sharing your methods and craft. Im curious about the Dedeco bristle, what diameter is it and what gear is needed to fit the Dremel? /Mikael
Thanks! What brand radial discs do you recommend, to move from scratch repair all the way up to a mirror polish. The lowest rotation speed i could find in a cordless Dremel tool was the actual Dremel brand, at 5k RPM. Is that slow enough?
I have a link in the video description to my gear and all the links www.alexandriaknifesharpening.com/sharpening thats an on/off magnet placed in a dremel vice
If you look my videos the are in categories one is polishing with Radial Disc I have done several videos showing them on plastic and metal they also can be used on wood and I have a video showing how great they cheap Chinese ones in 80 grit are for rust removal. They are really great last a long time. The name brand ones 3m and Dededco are best for finish work I don’t use the cheap ones for that they are not as goo and leave strange patterns but for rust removal that are great or things that don’t need a perfect finish for quality items stick to the good one
@@ALXSHARPEN Going to try some of the cheap Chinese radial disks on my 1864 American Civil war Cavalry sabres scabbard that has some light rusting. They actually look fragile, yet you do mention that they are long-lasting...

It's a beautiful knife. Glad to make it look great again. Yes Dremel tools are good, but some of the things do more damage than good.
Great to hear the other part of the story, thanks for sharing!

It shows how good your skill and reputation is for a customer to send a high quality knife that probably has a value of $300-500. As usual

As usual your videos are informative and have good tips.
Glad you like them!
Beautiful work !
Thank you very much!
P.S.
Is this particular B. River blade considered a "Hollow" grind?
I'm still learning sharpening...

Thank you

Dededco or 3m
Thanks for the video! Where do you get those digital discs?
go watch my channel trailer tells you where all the links are
Nice! I like that.👍🏻
me too came out great
Which dremel do you use? It looks nice and slim.
It's a Foredome Tool in this video not a Dremel
Thanks for the video! Where do you get those discs?
links are in the video and on the top of my channel for where I get everything
Which model of FOREDOM flex shaft tool are you using? I didn’t see them on your web page.
What is the magnetic holder and where can I get one?!!!

Is there a reason you are using the small wheels instead of just using the bigger ones on the small buffers?
It was easier for me to film it and show on camera
@@ALXSHARPEN off camera, you would use the bigger wheels?
I did use both on this knife the jewelry buffers make it real easy to get a nice even finish they have around 12 ply of dics on them @@dmitryk754
Those radial disks on the jewelry polisher look like 4" disks. Is that right or are they 3"? Awesome work on that knife!
How are those bits on handles? Pretty anything other than wooden handles.
