Hi Magdad, I didn’t know Jack but by the remarks from yourself, Scout and commenters he was a what we would call a “great bloke”. Lovely job on his pocket knife. When my dad past away in 1995 I inherited all of his workshop tools plus the Leatherman my mum bought him for their 42nd wedding anniversary. It was his EDC and I still read the engraving mum had put on it when ever I use it. I was never happier than when my dad and I would work together on a project. I still miss him but lately I have felt the pleasure he got from helping me by giving my son a hand renovating his bathroom with my 7yr old grandson doing his best to help. Funny, but I caught myself telling my grandson what a great helper he was and watching his face light up just like my dad did for my son. Right, I’m off to wipe my eyes. Thanks heaps for the memories, cheers Stuart 🇦🇺

Nice job!! You always do a good job cleaning up pocket knives. I had my dads smaller "Kamp King" pocket knife. Put it in my pocket 42 years ago after his funeral and had around all the time. I did not carry it around with me as fear of losing it, but kept it on my desk at home and use it for small things. Last summer, after watching a few of your knife clean-up vids, I took it to the garage and did my clean-up on it. Used a few of your tricks and it came out really nice. I just recently passed it on to my daughter and she knew it was "grandpa's knife" You thought I gave her a million dollars. I know my dad had a smile on his face when I gave it to her and I know she will treasure it for the rest of her life.

I have one tool in particular from my dad. I don't carry it but it is special. It is a small Snap-On pliers. What makes it special is where it came from. My dad had a 1967 Pontiac station wagon with the chintzy vinyl simulated panels. We eventually peeled them off. I learned to drive on the car. The car came from the Pontiac Motor Division Engineering motor pool. The car was the 1967 model with 1968 parts. For instance, the brakes and wheel size changed in 1968. Our 1967 wagon had 1968 wheels and brakes. Back to the pliers. The transmission went out and required a rebuild. When my dad picked the car from the shop the mechanic handed him the pliers. My dad assured the mechanic they weren't his and that he owned no Snap-On tools. The mechanic said the pliers were found inside the transmission. They had nothing to do with the transmission failure. They were in a safe place waiting to be found. Bob

Beautiful job on that knife! I still have an Old Timer knife dad gave me years ago. I had a pinkish/red Barlow knife he gave that I have somewhere. The most cherished thing I inherited is dad's old Colt Commander .45acp. It was built in 1959 and passed through many hands in the family by the time I got it. It's a great shooter with a ramp job, trigger job (about a 4lb), Novak sites and I put Colt Medallion grips on it. Dad knew I wouldn't "hawk" it. I also inherited a ton of his tools when he was an electrician. Now mom's stuff, I got her silver coin collection that was passed down from her father, silver halves, dimes and quarters. Really neat coins. Thanks for the video and I'm sure Jack is smiling! I also hope his family has cherished stuff they got!

Nice video on the restoration, I loved the part of the video where you showed your dad's knife and the VW key that you carry on your key ring. When my grandpa died I was asked what I would like to have of his, I only wanted his old cane fishing pole as it brought back all the memories of us fishing. I brought it home and hung it in my livingroom and no matter where I have lived since it has been on the wall, that was 27 years ago and I still miss him and my grandmother everyday. They raised me from a baby until I got married so they were really my parents.

I have my late father's Buck Stockman pocketknife. I bought it for him as a present when I was around 20 years old. He passed at the young age of 60, having carried that knife every day for 15 years or so. I eventually sent it back to Buck as the blades were wobbly. At my request they left the heavily pocketworn scales on, reset and sharpened the blades. I'm now 69, and that knife resides in its original box that I bought nearly 50 years ago!

I have had it on my key ring for over 30 years or so. I work for the railroad and I always carry can goods. I still use it at times when I am working in the field and there is no restaurant nearby. Every time I use it, it brings back memories of my dad. Love your channel Magdad!! Always look forward to your videos!!!!

I have just recently begun to restore knives. I take a different tack. I take knives that have scales made of plastic and replace with Cherry wood that I harvest from my yard. I've done three traditional made in USA knives. I just completed a Camillus Scout project. The knife was solid. The spacers, bolsters and springs were extremely well made, but the scales were plastic and they had shrunk. The completed knife with my Cherry wood scales looks pretty nice.

My Dad’s pocket knife sits on my dresser in a cuff link box that he used to put all his “stuff” in at the end of the day..he owned a grocery store so there was a box cutter, knife, keys, etc. I can still hear him come home and empty his pockets, sometimes he brought an unusual coin home and he would give it to me for my collection.

You're the one and only pocket knife restoration master! My grandfather and I both got a key chain together in Switzerland. He used his for as long as he worked as a self employed truck driver. I still take mine everywhere I go for over 18 years now. Same as my high school locker key. Fun story, I lost my key chain playing with it in water behind my grandfathers house once. I've tried everything to find it, for at least an hour and then gave up. He came later on, after I left and went home, with a rake at first try pulled it out.

It can be very hard researching knives! I've spent countless hours... I love having my dad's oldtimer and my grandads old-timer as well. I was watching a very talented knife maker recently and he had just got a new 1 inch belt sander from harbor freight. He modified the deck so it would tilt backwards 23° perfect bevel! Then made a nice knife on it by holding the blade vertical and pushing against the belt .. no gloves? I thought it was to make sure it didn't get too hot ? I always wear gloves because I wouldn't have any fingertips left lol .... but it makes a big difference to me which way the fine scratches are running on the blade just looks more factory like you did it . Very nice!

Fantastic! I have my Grandma's butter churn that she used to make homemade butter from cows she had milked. I am guessing that knife was actually manufactured by Camillus as they had the contract for many large chain department stores. Thanks again, love your work and videos. Say hi to Chuck for me.

Very nice work M.D.. Came out beautiful.. The little blade channel that you cleaned out with steel wool, if you look into that channel you can see a small place where the blade comes in contact with the metal when allowed to snap shut... I take a small piece of cotton to keep the blade from doing this.. Love those beetles.. I think most of the older generation have a story to tell about having one.. To bad you weren't in a position to keep the entire car... M.D. another great video and u take care my friend...

Wow this came out great! I recently got into trying to restore some vintage traditional folders like this and it’s satisfying because when they come out decently, you have a functional piece of pocket art in your pocket. I’ve been testing the ones I did in comparison to edge retention of my more premium super steels like S30V. They compare pretty favorably, though I do think these traditionals sharpen up much faster and are quite keen initially. I have one coming that I got a good deal on and the bone handle covers on one side is broken off from the front pin to the rear pin and about halfway up the cover, and I am going to try to use a material to fill in the missing bone with and film it and hope it comes out good. I can possibly dye the filler or leave it contrasting. When it comes and I clean it up, I’ll assess it.
