Old Machete Restoration - DIY With No Power Tools

This is a simple and satisfying restoration of an old rusty machete. But I've decided to do it without power tools!

[@salonika101]

For some reason, watching restorations without machines & only by hand is so satisfying.

[@rizlak7735]

Hello salonika

[@littlefatguybombs9228]

I agree.

[@IllegalAlien51]

I found this to be the opposite.

[@carlosjones9107]

salonika101 that is how you are supposed to do it anyways

[@LeowithoneO]

[@davidayres7973]

The lack of power tools made this vid so much more satisfying to watch.

[@SnarkyMalarkey]

*Hand go brrrt!*

[@JordanCreaser29]

For some reason, I just love machetes. They are like modern swords mixed with knives

[@peteoconnor8808]

In sixty five years I have never seen a machete as nice as that one! Wow and of course the handle!!

[@jocostlow7257]

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!

[@Raientai]

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!

[@Raientai]

Andre Will Do It Awesome! Can’t wait!

[@florin-vasilemitria6444]

Andre Will Do It what granulation u used?

[@alw1403]

Further information by voice would be very useful.

[@Wannagobackto1980]

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!!!!

[@Connor-fy2wh]

For some reason it’s so satisfying to watch the stuff repaired

[@greysim4038]

My father used to restore things when I was young, it brings back good memories.

[@Rykyuby]

Grey Sim for a second there i thought a fly was on my screen

[@WW-kl5oc]

Jason would appreciate this beautiful work

[@jdzencelowcz]

That looks good enough to B used in ALL the Friday the 13th films!

[@Chr.U.Cas2216]

WOW! What a fantastic example of fine work/craftsmanship! Very well done! And the 3 apples at the end... unbelievable!

[@dzsjoker8931]

so satisfying to see an old rusty blade shining again,good job:-)

[@Xuzon]

Working manually in that wood looked tedious but so satisfying

[@minimaltrace]

Finally a video that says "no powertools", and there actually are none! Very nice work and great craftsmanship.

[@thetrewsfan]

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!

[@lSteveTheTrooperl]

wow, i love how its done by hand, really satisfying

[@onepercentjuice]

I hope your shop comes together well, you are my favorite tool restoration channel!

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

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.

[@Madsthenightowl]

If I hadn’t seen you do it, I would have just thought you bought a new one. Well done🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@mogadeet6857]

Fantastic! All that hard work condensed into 9 minutes. Now I know what to do. Thanks mate!

[@geandily]

did it turn out? I am doing literally the sam ething now lol

[@fzstormyx3424]

Boi it’s crazy how you did this all by hand good job 👍

[@emur26]

Fantastic work, Andre.

[@theymusthatetesla3186]

Now THAT....was impressive!!

[@idontknowgabe]

can you restore my life?

[@crpth1]

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

Thats the best restoration ive seen in a long time

Mr.Vorhees would be proud 😢👏🏾

[@spencerdunn866]

Mrs vorhees and jason would appreciate mr vorhees was an abusive father to jason and pamela and pamela killed mr vorhees

[@tylerhamilton226]

Bro I watched full series it was 3 different machetes this guy must have restored them

Magnífica restauración, te felicito viejo !! 👍👏👏👏

[@bolobre4th]

Your videos are always awesome, looking forward to more restorations

Looks great Andre😀

[@jonalegria7686]

Nice job. I like the sawdust in the epoxy thing. Never seen that before.

[@OrangeCheekun]

Looks like custom wood glue. Neat trick haha

[@sonyhk3824]

It's incredible. Thanks

[@ksubswithnovideoschallen-cj7dn]

By far the best restoration ive seen yet...

[@cherriberri8373]

Awesome. Really love your videos. I'll look forward to the next one!

[@TheMrthegovman]

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.

[@pacowang283]

Beautiful

[@lelandwight8362]

Totally agree

[@arjnsdca]

Incredible job!

[@ColonelBummleigh]

This came up lovely

[@MartinKronstrom]

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.

[@lasagnatitty2071]

Martin Kronström why is there champagne in ur tool shed

[@danielaaguilera6652]

LMFAO!

[@Omni-kyun]

You should use a sabre to sabre a bottle of champaigne, not a machete.

[@Celticshade]

Lasagna titty aging?

[@williamharrison614]

Michael Pedersen He used a machete in one of the movies tho.

[@sperber-knives]

Nice!!!! This is what i like to See, good old Hand work :)

[@louel9272]

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?

[@thesams]

Beautiful work! Plus it's very relaxing to watch this.

[@edro3838]

[@jakeluna6178]

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

Love the result and knife testing 👍

Sharp Works there’s dozens of KZbin channels that do the same thing, KZbin’s algorithm just picked Andre up. Unless he bought ads there’s nothing to really do to grow fast without pure luck.

[@SharpWorks]

Andre Will Do It thanks for the comment back

[@wavedash-]

the youtube algorithm lottery is a mysterious being

[@cherriberri8373]

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.

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.
