Old Hand Forged Knife Restoration
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 มิ.ย. 2024
- It was an absolute honor to restore this old hand forged masterpiece from 1954. Blacksmith Eivind Hovden with registered blacksmith stamp E.H. in Norway started forging knife blades from 1925. Welding high carbon steel between mild steel by hand in coal forge for this gentleman was an easy task. After 66 years the blade still looks amazing and hopefully after my restoration it will survive the next 66 years.
Beside the knife restoration in this video, I also made a wooden handle (curly birch wood), miniature brass pommel for the knife tang and leather scabbard. Several things I did for the first time in this video and they are:
- making a wet form leather scabbard;
- using treadle powered lathe for metal and making small brass pommel;
- cutting and shaping the antler for the handle.

Thank you for watching, see you in the next one!
I still don't know how you only have 41k subscribers. you deserve a lot more.
I KNOW RIGHT HE SHOULD HAVE OVER 100K
Thanks a lot, maybe one day! Good things come with patience. I guess one of the reasons is that I am not as aggressive as other creators to gain more subscribers and I post exclusively to TH-cam, no other platforms. But I know that 41k is genuine, wonderful and supportive. For me that is priceless 👍
@@Jackielightning thank you!
Absolutely beautiful as usual. Thanks
@@ataarjomand 🙏☺️👍
When I watch your work, you take me to the old life when it was simple and needed hard work. What you are doing shows how professional and passionate you are.
Here I can see the difference between men and boys.
Keep up the good work.
Waiting for your new videos.
Wow, thank you! Will do 👍
I love the fact that there are people like you keeping the older ways and tools going. Keep up the great work.
Awesome, thank you! I will 👍
Ну что тут сказать!? Красота, пусть и немного заржавевшая, умеет вдохновлять на незабываемое! И заставляет создавать новую красоту. Еще более незабываемую!В общем, как говорила одна очень известная актриса - Красота - это страшная сила! 🙂

I stumbled by chance upon this video. You have got me hook, line and sinker. I love how you use vintage material and how you bring old items back to life! Please keep up the good work!
Best wishes!
(edit) oh, and I subscribed of course!
Awesome! Thank you! Welcome aboard Michiel! I appreciate your feedback!
Es ist für mich wunderschön anzusehen, mit welcher Liebe Sie diese alten Messer wieder von Hand aufarbeiten ❤
🤗
never fails to amaze me how you started out in that closet sized room with a handful of basic tools to living your best life an bringing old things back to their best life. 🫵🏼 Boris my friend across the world are soooo talented and amazing!! awesome job as always buddy. loved the leather folder/dryer thingy. super cool.
When you combine love and passion for something there are no limits I believe. Hitting obstacles along the way didn't discourage me, it made me even more persistent to find a way to overcome them and reach the goal. But that strength comes from individuals like you, who believed in me and supported my channel from the very beginning. Without you friend and many others this channel would not survive this long. Thank you for being there for me for so long. From bottom of my heart I am grateful for that! Stay safe and thank you for waiting patiently for my new videos!
well boris your talent an passion and love for what you do shows and that my friend makes you exceptional. i love watching your channel grow. it’s like supporting family across the world 😉 i believe in supporting others and being happy in their success.

Beautiful restoration, I’m just loving your work, really passion , dedication and love.
Thank you sir!
I must say i love the way you work with your old tool no modern tools

Excelente trabalho. E parabéns pela sua oficina, limpa e organizada!!!
Muito obrigado Alvaro!
Very nice restore on the blade and the new handle. I really can appreciate your shop and tools that you have. Some of the tools I've seen before and some I haven't.
Thank you very much Larry!
Just amazing. Thanks for the video
Thank you Milan, you are very welcome!
Just outstanding work. Thanks for the video 👍🏻.
Thank you too!
Белые рукава! Моё уважение. Я бы через пять минут был бы как шахтёр. Сама работа и инструмент тоже очень впечатляют.
Pure craftsmanship 👌
Thank you Tony so much 🙏
Absolutely Beautiful Knife
Thank you sir!
love the old wood tools, reminds me of my grandpa's shop.
Awesome, thank you for the feedback 👍
Great job! Always fun watching your work! Beautiful knife!
Thank you hundred times Mike!
I have to say, my favorite part of the video was the saunter test at the end. How convenient is it to draw, use, and replace smoothly while moving about the shop? Find out with a saunter test.
Of course, picking any part of this video was a "favorite" is like picking what day of the week has my favorite version of the sun in the sky. It was all beautiful, thank you.
Thank you kindly!
Вся эта обстановка и инструмент, заставляет меня верить, в мастерскую по ремонту из другого мира 👍
🙏😃👍
Смотрела до подписки. Подписалась и смотрю заново.Выбираю самые интересные ролики и снова смотрю с удовольствием!
I love this oldschool way of work.
Awesome, thank you!
That's the best sheath knife I ever saw. You're also the only magician I ever saw who needs no magic, which is magic!
😆👍 thank you Mark!
Great job, I love the tools a true craftsman !!!
Thank you very much sir!
Can't say more than: Great restoration and video!
Thank you sir!

@@FFD_Restorations thank you mate sharing the bigger picture.
That's what makes it more art than simple craft.
P. S. Me too (#meetoo) love to see your firstly restored tools still doing the show.
P. P. S. I still have a bad feeling about the singer sawing machine ;-)
You are welcome mate! Every time when I pick up an restored tool it makes me super happy 😃
Well, it is still in consideration what I should do with it or transform to 😅
This is amazing a very good Work you do a perfect Job of Restauration in the old Time ❤️👍❤️
Thank you very much!
Lovely job well done
seriously nice piece of work there, love that wood for the handle, great choice, treadle lathe looks an awesome addition to your workshop that will be very useful, and for a first time doing something with it and a first time making a wet form shows you have been doing a lot of learning to expand your skill level so much the last months, keep on keeping on doing this as you have found your place in the world
Thanks, will do! This was a great project to try new things and learn a few mistakes here and there. But overall I am glad I tried them. This will give me more flexibility in the future. Thanks a lot for the feedback and watching!
Wow!!! Thats impressive.😊👍 Bravo.👏👏👏 Fantastic Workmanship.
Many thanks 👍
Приятно наблюдать за работой мастера!
🙏
Great workmanship, well done.😊
Thank you mate 😃👍
Dude your skills are awesome. That’s a genius idea of using wood as the form when wet molding. Making one later today. And I DEFINITELY need more corduroy in my work gear. All around great!
Awesome! Thank you!
A real artist from the past!
Thank you Gabriel, much appreciated!
che meraviglia di restauro complimenti
Отличная работа!финка классная получилась
😃👍
Belle restauration, bravo.
Merci beaucoup monsieur 🙏
Wow! That's not just any knife you restored. It's traditional finnish knife puuko. You have rare gem being both traditional knife and of high quality. Nice find! Also you don't use power or modern tools because you love challenge every restoration brings and for you sense of achievement that comes after is greater when you do this by hand you also test your skills every time.
Hello Nino, wow you captured all details about this channel in just a few sentences! Well done, my full respect!
I need to correct myself. This is actualy sweddish mora knife not puuko. puuko has different shape of blade and it's much smaller.
Well done! Beautiful knife 😃👍🏼
Thank you so much David!
Beautiful knife, I liked the bone insert. Nicely done young man. Thanks for the video. BTW, like your shop/ studio, nice working atmosphere.
Thank you so much Terry 👍
Simplesmente sensacional Mestre, parabéns pela profissão e pelas ferramentas.
Muito obrigado
I love your work and your workshop is a time capsule. Keep going
Many thanks 👍
Bravo! Perfect accurate point. Great video.
Glad you think so! Thanks a lot sir!
Excellent choice handle materials. Regarding the curly silver birch, the specie/type is an obvious choice but the particular selection was used exceptionally well as the perfect adornment of the overall piece ... What a beaut!
Thank you so much sir!

Excelente trabajo. Parece un taller del siglo XIX, aunque la técnica luce mucho más antigua.
Me entretiene mucho ver tus videos, y sobre todo cómo accionas tus herremientas, sin electricidad, sólo con tu fuerza motriz.
Felicitaciones maestro.
Saludos desde Venezuela 🇻🇪 😉
Muchas gracias por ver Adrián.
Saludos desde Noruega 👋😃
very nice knife and perfect job!
Thank you Livio 👍
A nother nice restore great job
Love ❤️ the old timers tools , when men were men , we r spoiled with all of this modern tools 😮😢
Very good and climatic restoration! Also, beautifull knife. 2 advices- 13:42 always hammer the end when blade is in the vise, its very easy to break or bend tip of the blade the way you do it. Happened to me once or twice ;) Its also good to use wood inside for sheath, it makes it more durable.
Thank you for advices and watching. I appreciate that 👍
Irmão, sua oficina é incrível. E seu trabalho fantástico. Parabéns 👏👏🇧🇷
Obrigado irmão 👍
My friend , this work is extremely beautiful. You did everything what an old knife needs in old school way !!! Big pleasure to see your vintage human-powered mechanical tools in action and yes i envy the big grinding wheels bench 😅⭐️⭐️⭐️ Be safe and see you soon 👍🏻🔧🪚🛠⚙️
Thank you so much my friend! I am glad you think so! I appreciate that you take time to check out my videos! You too, see you 😀👍

Как всегда шикарно. Спасибо за видео :)
Спасибо за обзор и просмотр Алексей
very good work. Greetings from Buenos Aires
Thank you very much sir!
👋😃
Nice video mate 👌
Thanks 👍
Wooow! I really like the way you work. I also wonder how you have only some thousands subscribers. You literally deserve more and more
Thank you so much Rassul, very kind of you!
Fantastique !
😀👍
Восстановление таких вещей достойно уважения. Но ещё нравится и твой стиль. Не знаю как там в "Норвешскоj" с поиском одежды 50-х, но мыслю, что это везде нелегко. Респект.
Thank you kindly 🤗
That came out beautiful! I like the bone part. The wood is fantastic. Your skills are sublime.
Thank you kindly!
You done it again.
Many thanks again!
Wow, I just found your channel.. I guess the utube algorithm is working well :)
This is my first vid I’ve watched from you and you made me an instant subscriber!!
Awesome! Thank you! Welcome aboard 👍
Hello Boris, I love it. Nice job. keep it up ;)
Thanks mate, will do!
I want to see the industrial revolution of your shop! One motor, and 15 axles and 50 belts swirling everywhere. My great grandfather had a blacksmith shop with 1 motor powering several things (drill press, lathe, grindstone, and a few belts going to things removed before my time). Im in Eidsvoll if you want to have a look.
That would be a drastic change 😅. I am familiar with the similar setup where the water is powering many machines through belts. Both systems are simple but yet quite complicated for one person to make it happen in a very limited time after work and hobby budget. From video production perspective sound would be a real challenge to record since the both systems are quite loud. Uansett, jeg setter stor pris på ditt forslag og tusen takk for invitasjonen! God påske!
I really love the time and care you put into the work you do with each project you tackle. I was wondering if you took the same interest in the old or nonpower items in the rest of your home?
Thank you so much Julianna for such kind feedback. Strangely enough I do tend to use more hand cranked tools in kitchen than the modern ones 😂
I love the most is ur job boss
Зачёт! СТАРАТЕЛЬНО потрудился)
Спасибо Андрей
Круто то что ты так одет.Люблю ретро стиль.
Спасибо за просмотр!
good job
Wow! Just, WOW! So much to love here! How come I haven't seen this channel before!? Consider me subscribed! 💯💯💯
Awesome, thank you! Welcome aboard 👍
Да инструменты шикарные и руки на месте
😃👍
Шикарный нож, отличная реставрация. Пора свою кузьню строить, хотя много хороших вещей утратится тогда. Продолжайте! 👍
Большое тебе спасибо!
Да, ты прав. Я должен начать использовать кузницу 👍
@@FFD_Restorations не понял, как пропустил, что кузня уже есть. Видео почему-то в рекомендации не выходили.
Что-то мне подсказывает, что после работы на таких станках, на велосипеде ездить уже не захочется! 😁
Офигеть, это очень крутое востановление, я бы сказал прям уровень 10+, автору спасибо
Спасибо за отзыв 👍
@@FFD_Restorations совет твой нужен)
