I, too, would love to see a side-by-side at the end! It would make the finished product that much more impressive! Also, when I played this video for my husband, I had to go back to 2:56 to show off that mirrored finish. Amazing results. Keep up the good work and I can't wait to see your workshop back up and running!
Love your videos! I really like that you don’t feel the need to add cheesy music and let us enjoy the work sounds. Very nice. I think that you should add a side-by-side or fade at the end though, showing a before and after. Would make it all that much more impressive. Keep up the good work!
Gabriel Salazar - Most probably he can´t. But YOU can sand the rough edges, sharpen the cutting edge and polish it all to a bright shine. Makes a world of difference... ;-) Cheers
I got a machete, almost identical to this one that needs restoration . I’m so glad I found this video because now I think I know how to do it! I hope it comes out as nice as yours did! Thanks again.
Wow, shaping the handle before cutting a slot right in the middle was absolutely an act of bravery! Great result, and I love the "no power-tools" aproach!
awesome! I have a pair from my grandpa, I want to restore and use them but they are still sentimental. They have plastic handles are probably from the 80s. How do you sharpen them? Should I change handles? what kind if i do? what products and order of grit sandpaper did you use? what did you use to polish? type of adhesiveness did you use? If i use a wood handle what kind do you recommend? Sorry for all the questions. But thank you
Nice restoration, though I think maybe a hacksaw, the type with the .25 inch blade, would've helped make the making of the handle easier since you can manupulate the blade easy to cut curves with them.
Well it's only 2 am here but I enjoy watching these videos and my insomnia, and pain from my broken knee are making it very difficult to sleep so I watch these.
Wow. This guy’s pretty damn good. I just bought an old Collins Legitimus 1941. It needs some work. The sheath is in amazing condition, but the blade has some pitting. It’s like someone bathed the sheath in raw linseed oil for 80 years.
Today is July 26, 2024.. Wow thank you for video. Finished product looks brand new.. Now i can try and restore an old machete that belonged to my grandpa..
An coming from a guy from the Caribbean I've been a round a lot of machetes an cutlases I really like what you did to it, regardless of my first comment.
I'm glad you gave the handle some character. The generic ones take plain to the extreme. Looks awesome. I did one similar a few years ago, it's already started to go rusty again unfortunately. It wasn't as shiny or nice as yours.
Sharp Works there’s dozens of TH-cam channels that do the same thing, TH-cam’s algorithm just picked Andre up. Unless he bought ads there’s nothing to really do to grow fast without pure luck.
Quality content with decent quanitity, and because he's covering something that's harder to do and very cool, so there's a low supply and high demand, for a free price.
Wow your a legend, I have worked with wood and metal in high school and more recently mechanical engineering in college and it requires a lot of focus when it comes to filing the metal to a radius and working within the tolerances that are given. Watching you restore things just by hand and skill is satisfying as well as inspirational. Good on you mate.
Wow, it's so bizarre to see a machete with a mirror shine to it - it's probably the first time that blade's ever been polished! Glad people choose to give new life to work tools made to be ultimately disposable and cheap.
So refreshing to see this all done the proper way you did a fantastic job on the blade best part you did not attack it wuth the dreaded angle grinder and butcher it or flap disk a great job love how you used the draw file to remove excess epoxy really nice touch well done looks great..

The lack of power tools made this vid so much more satisfying to watch.
*Hand go brrrt!*
For some reason, watching restorations without machines & only by hand is so satisfying.
Hello salonika
I agree.
I found this to be the opposite.
salonika101 that is how you are supposed to do it anyways
Same
For some reason, I just love machetes. They are like modern swords mixed with knives
In sixty five years I have never seen a machete as nice as that one! Wow and of course the handle!!
I, too, would love to see a side-by-side at the end! It would make the finished product that much more impressive!

Andre Will Do It Awesome! Can’t wait!
Andre Will Do It what granulation u used?
Further information by voice would be very useful.
That looks good enough to B used in ALL the Friday the 13th films!
can you restore my life?
Gabriel Salazar - Most probably he can´t. But YOU can sand the rough edges, sharpen the cutting edge and polish it all to a bright shine. Makes a world of difference... ;-)

Sad song :(
Sad boi.
Gabriel Salazar best comment I've ever seen😂
Brasil hu3 hu3
My father used to restore things when I was young, it brings back good memories.
Grey Sim for a second there i thought a fly was on my screen
That has to be the best DIY RESTORATION by hand I have seen on here so far. Bravo sir. A machete Jason Voorhees would be proud of!!!!
This was masterclass work without power tools.
I got a machete, almost identical to this one that needs restoration . I’m so glad I found this video because now I think I know how to do it! I hope it comes out as nice as yours did! Thanks again.
Working manually in that wood looked tedious but so satisfying
so satisfying to see an old rusty blade shining again,good job:-)
Wow, shaping the handle before cutting a slot right in the middle was absolutely an act of bravery!
Great result, and I love the "no power-tools" aproach!
For some reason it’s so satisfying to watch the stuff repaired

If I hadn’t seen you do it, I would have just thought you bought a new one. Well done🙌🏻🙌🏻
I am addicted to watching these kind of videos... there so satisfying
Fantastic! All that hard work condensed into 9 minutes. Now I know what to do. Thanks mate!
did it turn out? I am doing literally the sam ething now lol
Mr.Vorhees would be proud 😢👏🏾
Mrs vorhees and jason would appreciate
mr vorhees was an abusive father to jason and pamela and pamela killed mr vorhees
Bro I watched full series it was 3 different machetes this guy must have restored them
Voorhees
Finally a video that says "no powertools", and there actually are none! Very nice work and great craftsmanship.
WOW! What a fantastic example of fine work/craftsmanship! Very well done! And the 3 apples at the end... unbelievable!
Now with this machete I could Indiana Jones my way to the backyard tool shed...and bring back a bottle of champagne to sabre it with.
Martin Kronström why is there champagne in ur tool shed
LMFAO!
You should use a sabre to sabre a bottle of champaigne, not a machete.
Lasagna titty aging?
Michael Pedersen He used a machete in one of the movies tho.
wow, i love how its done by hand, really satisfying
I love restorations by hand. They’re better than ones with power tools tbh
Jason will be proud of you
Unintended ASMR at its best.
I'm surprised the wooden handle did not catch fire 😆 great job! one question what can be applied to a high carbon blade to prevent future rusting?
thanks for doing it without power tools, it makes it more fun and also if you want to try it at home then its easier
this is the fastest working man on the planet
Nice job. I like the sawdust in the epoxy thing. Never seen that before.
Looks like custom wood glue. Neat trick haha
why I am watching this at
3 am😐
Same boat
Same
Yep
Same
Well it's only 2 am here but I enjoy watching these videos and my insomnia, and pain from my broken knee are making it very difficult to sleep so I watch these.

I would never use it again. Perhabs as a mirror. Such an awesome job! It's satisfaying to watch!
Jason would appreciate this beautiful work
I hope your shop comes together well, you are my favorite tool restoration channel!
Today is July 26, 2024.. Wow thank you for video. Finished product looks brand new.. Now i can try and restore an old machete that belonged to my grandpa..
Awesome I found an old one from Thailand, that gives me some ideas thanks
Boi it’s crazy how you did this all by hand good job 👍
Omg the apple slice at the end cracked me up cause im plaing the video at 1.25 speed so they just sliced themselves
No they didnt. You see the swing 🙄
@@Holistic-Hallucinations what part of I'm watching it at an increased speed did you miss.
@@connortremeer1966 nothing dumbass. You think I missed that? I tried that scene at every speed. Duh
Ningún súper héroe mire que moviera las manos como tu jajaja. Ni de nuevo se veía así de chingon ay esta tu like amigo
I literally salivated when that blade came up shiny 🙈😂
Magnífica restauración, te felicito viejo !! 👍👏👏👏
Beautiful
Totally agree
An coming from a guy from the Caribbean I've been a round a lot of machetes an cutlases I really like what you did to it, regardless of my first comment.
nice work, man. nice to watch somebody uses hand tools instead of power tools
Lord I love power tools
8:40 My dude rocking a pair of crocs
Matthew Curley I knows a crocs I sees em
WHY IS THIS FUN TO WATCH !
Thats the best restoration ive seen in a long time
At 2x speed he becomes *The Flash* ⚡
-the flash-
Este muchacho me llena de orgullo
-un chapeador
this could be an epic montage in the next Machete movie
I'm glad you gave the handle some character. The generic ones take plain to the extreme. Looks awesome. I did one similar a few years ago, it's already started to go rusty again unfortunately. It wasn't as shiny or nice as yours.
Nice!!!! This is what i like to See, good old Hand work :)
Wow man how’d you get so big in only two months?!
Sharp Works Quality content.
Sharp Works there’s dozens of TH-cam channels that do the same thing, TH-cam’s algorithm just picked Andre up. Unless he bought ads there’s nothing to really do to grow fast without pure luck.
Andre Will Do It thanks for the comment back
the youtube algorithm lottery is a mysterious being
Quality content with decent quanitity, and because he's covering something that's harder to do and very cool, so there's a low supply and high demand, for a free price.
A machete worthy of a samurai. This video was very satisfying.
By far the best restoration ive seen yet...
It's incredible. Thanks
A ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++, very nice work . Mike Espo..
Nice to see a job done with basic hand tools. We don't all have access to band saws & power tools. Nice job
Wow your a legend, I have worked with wood and metal in high school and more recently mechanical engineering in college and it requires a lot of focus when it comes to filing the metal to a radius and working within the tolerances that are given. Watching you restore things just by hand and skill is satisfying as well as inspirational. Good on you mate.
Jason Vorhees would be proud!
I don't why, but I really like your videos
George Henry take a chill pill
Now THAT....was impressive!!
Nice job. Especially liked the apple slice!
Jason Vorhees sends his thanks,
Can you fix a rusty hoarse shoe?
Wow, it's so bizarre to see a machete with a mirror shine to it - it's probably the first time that blade's ever been polished! Glad people choose to give new life to work tools made to be ultimately disposable and cheap.
Great works by hand, sir !
I wish I was that machete...
kinky
god i wish that were me
Do you have a fetish for sandpaper scraping across your skin ?
@@madarauchiha21 YEAH I MADE THIS COMMENT 2 YEARS AGO AND NOTHINGS CHANGED!
Still hasn't changed.
awesome !!
An amazing piece, job well done
Good work I watch your video from Saudi Arabia I enjoied with your work thanks
Off topic, but is English your first language?
What happened with the electric tools , everything are made with hands today
Now that's a machete Jason would love.
That handle was beautiful crafted with hands, that's shows skills.. welldone
Andre Will Do It u r welcome
Ur polish ???
Andre Will Do It dang it I was really hoping to see what it was
Are you asking if he's Polish? or what kind of polish?
he does polish though ))
It is festool mpa 11010 antihologramm
Wielka polska
*Watches at 2x speed*
All I see is .. both your hands are like magician's hand !! I was amazed
Wow that's quite a hand workout. Very nice job!👍
What is he melting in 8:03??
Redokeo I believe that's beeswax, used for preserving the wood in the handle of the machete.
No power tools ey? How did u screw that vise in????
Butterderpz with a screw driver
Butterderpz r u dumb
If that's hardwood, then there's no way a screwdriver would have enough force to break the surface of the wood in order for the screw to go in.
Oisin Molloy is that the only thing you have to say?
Butterderpz 5:47
So refreshing to see this all done the proper way you did a fantastic job on the blade best part you did not attack it wuth the dreaded angle grinder and butcher it or flap disk a great job love how you used the draw file to remove excess epoxy really nice touch well done looks great..
Your videos are always awesome, looking forward to more restorations
At 2:28 ???
Andre - no english...
Matthew Curley what the hell
Matthew Curley I'm sorry but I really don't see the point in saying that
JO95POWER it prevents rust going back on it and shiny too
Nadie va a comentar nada en español?
Hubiera sido mas facil comprar un machete nuevo 😁
Ya lo hiciste.
Buzzfeed could learn a thing or 2 from this man
Jason Voorhees wud b proud of that nice work and without power tools 10/10 m8
Great job! Bring it to Florida and it will be rusty again by the end of the week.
Thank you this video was the only one to help me with my machetes thank you
Machine gun when you hear the chiseling sped up 🔥
Year 2500. Word has it that Andre is still doing it.
Simply incredible! But I think you should add a "Before" and "After" shot in your videos to make it all the more impressive.
God damn that's a fine ass polishing.....I tip my hat to you
Very good video. I want this guy working for me. At that speed he could do 3 days work in 8 hours. Employee of the month. Thumbs up. Thanks
From México... Congratulations!!! excellent restoration without machines!!! Only with yours hands!!! 👏👏👏👏
