Old Rare Pocket Knife Restoration. 225 Years Underground!

[@michaelszabo3071]

10/10, the final product has so much character and swagger to it. Old school classic and authentic, done right. Beautiful work man.

[@ReXtorer]

Thanks!

[@rtyrsson]

I rate that at a 10. The knife was so far gone that you really did not have much to work with. But you did preserve the blade and paid honor to its long history. Using horse bone from WW2 was a very nice touch, adding a bit of history from the 1940s. Most people do not realize that horses were still in use by the millions even that recently. Really a fantastic restoration!

[@ReXtorer]

Thank you for the high rating of my work!

[@WestPointLakeWilly]

The bone work was, just wow!! I didn’t know it could look like that.

[@maikstein269]

A beautiful resurrection. 10/10

[@TheRedhawke]

10/10 I think anyone would cherish the opportunity to carry that knife.

[@vinceianni4026]

Hello mister beautiful restoration beautifully restored well done

[@davedoughty1213]

Another amazing restotransformation!!!! The original metal for the blade must have been premium quality to last that long underground! Your mechanical skills are paramount! The choice of horse bone from a battlefield is spot on!! Well done sir!!! The Old Army Scout. Do you sell your knives? I’m asking for an old veteran friend… thanks for your video!!

[@ReXtorer]

Thank you very much! I don't sell knives...

[@dajuanajones702]

So addicted to the fact you have great quality work and consistent uploads!!

[@thrashcore7]

wow. I rate it 10, even if only the blade was saved, but the rebuilt of the handle is magnificent and elegant

[@BRYNWON]

10/10 Very nice. the old horse bone from the battlefield was cool.

nice work!

[@celesterobbins5830]

Good work!

[@paparatt8147]

10+ excellent job!!

[@Richard.357]

That was totally awesome. You tried your best to save all the components of the knife. What if you had a forge also .

[@ericbadia5]

I need to see again a helmet restoration! I think your restoration/preservation work on military stuff is awesome! I didn't really like your content since the very beginning because the first video was a 500+ year old knife restoration video in which you cut some part of it. After some tkme I can tell you convinced me pretty much! Keep up the good work!

[@ReXtorer]

Thanks)

[@zelphx]

BEAUTIFUL.

[@MASI_forging]

This looks real good after renovation 👍👍

[@duaneho555]

Really good job. I enjoyed this video a lot.

[@ДІДПАНАС-г4и]

Чудова робота Маестро, все як по нотах ...

[@mauricefaulkner455]

Beautiful scales I personally would've installed a new blade but restoration is just that

[@bobbymeadows9373]

Very good restoration, love the knife

[@JodyDarden]

Hola buenas tarde vaya restauración que manos tiene olé tú saludos

[@BradRoehl-bw5gk]

A 10 all day! I've always wondered why they never used brass bolsters. Thank you

[@andrzejporeda7281]

Super jest ten cały nóż odrestaurowany Pozdrawiam serdecznie 👍👍👍👍👍

[@marlonkarfunkelstein5917]

in my In my Opinion, restoring a Pocketknive is not that Big of a Deal, but what You made of it is just impressive. Precision, a good Eye for what it needs, and a lot o´Love for that little old Knive! Thanks for the inspiring Video. 10 out of 10!

[@treyingle2638]

10/10 🙌 beautiful knife 👍💯

[@HNZ.]

awesome!!! 10👏👏👏

[@knife_knut]

That’s a 10! 👍😎👍

[@kimderrick7796]

10 all the way!!

[@ЧоршанбеЧоршанбиев-э3г]

Просто шикарна робота, я вражений!

[@davidjohnston330]

PERFECT 🤙🤙

[@al-bongovic]

A box full of goodies! You'll have enough for a couple years. 😉 You're likely using a metal detector to uncover these treasures, right? Have you ever discovered larger items, such as a helmet or even a complete rifle, in your searches?

[@ReXtorer]

Of course) Here is my other channel www.youtube.com/@ArtifactDigger

[@jeffbaranowski6695]

What happened to the dimpling on the brass? The end result looked smooth. I'll give you an 8+.

[@АндрейАлексин-н5о]

Bravo!

[@geraldstamour1312]

Dope AF results, @ReXtorer!

[@Dziku888]

That's way far better than the oridinary restoration. If I could I even would add pin to opening blade one handed.

[@MarkLytle-u3k]

An absolutely beautiful job. The only thing I can see is those beautiful handles don't fit exactly snug at the ends. But the beautiful restoration job done takes that away from the whole thing. Great job.... i love it. I say a 10.

[@piperkennard1039]

A10 awesome 🤙

[@romanivankiv6367]

Хороша робота !)

[@marilenanetrino9630]

a big 10 !!!

[@edwardwilliams462]

Beautiful Job 10 every day of the week.

[@RestorationCR-ny6on]

good job

[@mti14]

10. Although more of a renovation rather than a restoration.

[@andrewszot3094]

I’d Cary that knife! Great job 10

[@Carl-h7d]

Another great restoration. 10/10. What do you do with the items you have restored?

[@Jan_Bronowizkiy]

Hello. Nice one, rate as 10/10. Metal which used on handel was 1mm?

[@ReXtorer]

Thank you! yes, 1 mm

[@mti14]

Do a little metal detecting?

[@The66Leadfoot]

Always appreciate how you try to save as much as possible. This is a ten!

[@roxyagev5601]

6. 'because the sieve stripes are to better grip the knife when it is wet

[@XianHu]

I'd have been tempted to embed the original liners (or what was left of them) into the scales, just for the aesthetic. This was excellent, though; 10out of 10.

[@ArchAlco]

Your close ups are really good quality what camera do you use? Love the videos

[@richardgrant5009]

11 all day long.👍

[@robertmiller7721]

I almost want to skip to the end to see the final product but that would ruin the fun. Keep it up. You need to give us written instructions on how to do it so that future generations can do the same

Und wieder ein verostetes Messer zum Leben erweckt😊 klasse!

[@danmatsav]

Pocket knife of Theseus?

[@RalphHeron-d6w]

Nice knife restoration....just needs a new blade and a new handle...........

[@SudosFTW]

need to get yourself an electronic knife sharpness testing scale to show the fruits of your work in number form.

[@isaiahpero7837]

Yeeaahh, “HORSE BONES.” Ssuurree, guy. Some day soon, GenZers are gonna knock on your door looking for the bones of their grandfather that you turned into a knife. 😂😂

[@liviostocco1745]

A 10 for sure!

[@سلمانكيّوش]

هل كان بالإمكان أن تملأ الحفر الصغيرة على نصل هذه السكين لتصبح أروع؟ عمومًا عملك أكثر من رائع..

[@francescoparretti7793]

Full 10

[@sharonlaster2767]

Restoration-2. Beautiful handle-10. Make a new blade and you're a complete 10! (The blade may be historically important, but it clashes with the polished bone and brass.)

[@НиколайМедников-й6й]

Хорошая работа, но над заточкой ещё надо работать.

[@takis12345]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@zzanatos2001]

This restoration proved that it is indeed possible to polish a turd. Well done.

[@richterknives]

doesnt get any better than that.

[@max.m.8873]

🙋👍👏💪

[@robertoyamakata6672]

So it's older than my country Argentina.

[@stanislavverbivskyi6723]

Можно было детали прохромировать. Тогда ножу б цепы не было. Вещь!

[@okzeus2000]

Not a 225 year old knife….

[@capers72424]

Why do you believe that?

[@ReXtorer]

Maybe 230 or 220. That's a rough estimate. Knife of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

[@sanyablogger]

8/10 🤷‍♂️

[@timurnizamov1127]

10/10 for restoration, 0/10 for sharpening, total 10

[@MrSwott]

За работу 5+, но от оригинала мало осталось, это уже не реставрация.

[@mti14]

You can only do so much. You have to deal with what you have. I would call it a renovation rather than a restoration.

[@emildebeer7645]

Maybe ivory scales

[@ЄвгеніяЯковцова]

Клас!
