      It takes time, skills and a great mind to master all those tools and he did plenty the old fashioned way. Not that I wasn't impressed, but plenty buy tools without the knowledge and skill to put them to use. The Man behind them and his determination is what impressed me the most!💪👏😎

      @@meinemechaniker Warrior, who are you, you must understand that if you weld steel with welding. Then your head can get under this axe, the handle will simply be torn off. It is better to make a knife yourself from whole steel than a knife made by welding, especially the handle of the knife, and the axe can generally be thrown away for steel recycling or you can weld the steel yourself. Pieces of old steel tend to fly off the metal because the metal has lost its strength. Those who know this have a blast furnace for remelting old steel and the older it is, the more expensive the steel is because there are fewer metal impurities.

      @@meinemechanikerRespectfully, I think you are mistaken. Chopping cleavers almost always have a subtle curve over the length of the blade. It is very hard to chop onto a cutting board and have the cleaver blade strike the cutting board all along the length of the blade.
      With a perfectly straight edge geometry like you have created, the tip or the heel will be prone to sticking into the cutting board and be less likely to cut all the way through the item, particularly with meat. You want a very subtle bulge in the belly of the blade to so that a longer portion or the blade edge will strike the cutting board on any given chop.
      I also agree that the curve at the tip likely increased over the years due to repeated sharpening's. However that does not mean that a straight edge geometry was the original shape.
      I beautiful job none the less. I just defiantly believe that a slight curve over the length of the blade or at least a subtle upward curve at the tip would make that cleaver work better for its intended purpose in a real world setting

    Absolutely amazing work restoration ring this cleaver. I have a few process and design questions if you don't mind:
    1. Why cut off the tang only to forge weld a new one on?
    2. Why place the guard before welding the tang back to the blade?
    3. Why make the indent in the guard?
    4. Why fasten the grip to the tang with screws without leaving a method to unscrew them? Why not use rivets?
    I'm truly curious and and want to know your decisions behind these design and process choices as you are an amazing craftsman. Truly great work!

    • @meinemechaniker
      @meinemechaniker  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      1-should have been an equal tang
      2-Once the guard piece is in there, it won't come out again. and this way the tang edge will look one piece.
      3-Once the guard piece is in there, it won't come out again. and this way the tang edge will look one piece.
      4-yes, rivets are a choice. but I guess my choice was to create a little crowd.

    Beautiful! 👍😁 But one question - when you reduce the weight of the blade (removing the edge) and increase the weight of the handle (much thicker shaft), doesn’t that completly mess up the balance of the original cleever and transfer much less power to each chop you make?

    • @agistan7764
      @agistan7764 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Agreed, not to mention that the original cleaver cutting edge wasn't straight on purpose. This isn't a knife. It's meant to chop at large pieces of meat.
      I also cringed a bit then first rust removal was the sandblaster, not chemical processes (either boling or rust remedy of kind) - that would leave more original metal. Original handle could've been salvaged and restored if not for barbaric removal method.

    • @UltimateDillon
      @UltimateDillon ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@agistan7764agreed here too, I cringed at all three of those points, the quick and dirty sandblast, the unceremonious discarding of the original cutting edge, and the unnecessary replacement of the handle

    • @spasmmcspasm
      @spasmmcspasm ปีที่แล้ว

      As a chef I can say that the weight isn't going to be much of an issue but the straight edge would be if it were ever going to see use again for butchery. Vegetable cleavers do have almost straight blades, I use one every day and it's my favourite tool. The problem there though it is about three times to big to be any good for vegetables. In saying all that though it is a beautiful piece.

      It never looked that good because it never was, I was keen till the TRADE MARK was put on then it finally went from restoration to recreation and my heart wasn't in it any more.

    I literally have this cleaver's twin. Mine is in a little bit better condition than yours was to start. The thin tapered tang was just the way they made them. I would love to restore mine in the same manner.

    I've seen many videos dealing with metallurgical restoration (a fascination and passion of mine), but this was an absolute master class on the art. Positively stunning.

    That has got to be the best restoration of a blade that I've seen. The end product is beautiful but the attention to improvement and taking the time to differentially heat treat the blade and edge is beautiful and satisfying to watch.
    I think it's the kind of thing where afterwards, you could happily sit back with a beer and just admire it for a while.
    You appear to be a master craftsman.

    The only choice you made that I didn't like, was changing the blade edge from rounded to straight. Otherwise, it's a beautiful cleaver. Now go cut a ham hock!

    Brilliant job, it's like brand spanking new but that's also the "problem" - it's too new, no patina left. I would've preferred if you had kept the old wood handles, and although I know they're probably not the original ones, it would still have added some old and roughed look to this old beauty - kept a bit of the soul if you know what I mean. 😊Peace. 🙏
