Rare WW1 German Bayonet Restoration. Rusty Knife Restoration

Rare WW1 german rusty bayonet restoration. This EB44 is the rarest of the German plain bladed S98/05 type Ersatz bayonets from WWI. This bayonet was found on the battlefield on the Eastern Front. The bayonet was very rusty.
I decided to preserve a part of history and restored the bayonet. I removed all the rust and preserved the old iron. I like to restore antiques and knives. I hope you liked my restoration.

I really enjoyed this video and the spectacular work you did. Hoping you have several more WWI & WWII artifacts to restore. Those historic items seem to be very popular.

[@Mike_W78]

I’ve got one that my dad had. It’s still in working order and it’s still sharp.

[@oatnoid]

I find watching your videos soothing and satisfying. But I'm curious what you do with your restored artifacts.

[@Thomas287]

I love how you restore historic objects with a full respect and a beautiful result.

[@ReXtorer]

Thanks!

[@stevenpeterson8444]

Restorers are very glovey folk, aren’t they? Great vid.

[@daver6564]

I can’t imagine the time taken to dremel the rust out of all those pits. Beautiful work!

[@ReXtorer]

3 hours... Thank you!

[@TheRealDonaldTrump20242]

@@ReXtorer hey, I like doing the same stuff as you do for restoring old knives and stuff like that I'm an amateur. Do you have any advice for an amateur to be better at this? I'm OK but I think learning from some thing like you who has more experience doing it if you could messaged me that would be great. Also, I need to know what products to get. Thanks.

​​​​@@ReXtorer It's not 3 hour it's 19 hour and 6 minute of working u r legand

[@trishblackman7403]

The scraping off the top rust is the best part for me at least. 😊. I wish more restoration videos would indulge that scraping.

[@jillmclemore4222]

I happen tomorrow have your video pop up on my sites and I must say I throughly enjoy seeing your work. As one who loves antiques and both bought and sold it’s always interesting to see them restored to their original beauty!

[@eduardomansur8683]

Perfect...respected the action of time! This to me is restoration.

[@131dyana]

What a great job you did there. thanks for sharing.

[@tctc8578]

What a piece of history right there! Much respect and great craftsmanship 👍👏🙏

[@derekflynn3876]

Well Done! You preserved it well!

[@boratosua3715]

Дякую Євгене, завжди дивлюсь твої відео, вони дозволяють хоч трохи відволіктись в сьогоднішні часи. Успіхів і наснаги.

[@ReXtorer]

Дякую!

[@tedbundy1365]

Love the close up of the rust detail relaxing to watch 🤙

[@user-dz7ks5vv6v]

This is amazing! Your videos should definitely get more attention!

[@rils2423]

Am I the only one who finds this really satisfying

[@les3449]

You did a fantastic job. BUT, have you thought about using JB Weld to fill in the pits after using the rust converter? I know that may not be what you want for some items but just a thought.

[@RoninDosho]

That was a Labor of Love. Amazing work!

[@yakhourb]

Sand blasting is much better than all of this process

[@Chiefkahuna2]

WW 1. When bayonets were real bayonets. Very nice video.

[@zhufortheimpaler4041]

The dogtag does not match up with the bayonet. Its a Pionier (Engineer/Sapper) dogtag, the Bayoned is Jäger/Infantry. The Pionier Bayonet had a saw back.

[@matteogiacomantuono77]

Nice job . This is a real restoration

[@tom-oneil]

Look up the word restoration 😅 He just knocked the rust off and put oil on it

[@andrzejporeda7281]

Piękny zabytkowy odrestałrowany jest ten miecz pozdrawiam twórcę tego filmiku 👍👍👍👍👍

[@jpchan3866]

Nice restoration! It is good to Use a lot of chemicals for restoring such an old weapon

[@TatiusBae]

All your videos are SUPER ASMR, AND AWSOME

[@iovv88]

This guy is a maniac if he opens up the aluminium foil of a new bottle with a precision knife 😎😀

[@jerrypolete5258]

Where do you get these items to restore them? I would love to get my hands on some of these items. Just awesome

[@ReXtorer]

I find them. Here I created a channel where I show the search process www.youtube.com/@ArtifactDigger

[@matei82]

Bravo!!!

[@rosmaryrivas2966]

You relax me bro a little more and see me slepping 😴😴😴😴😴😌😌😌

[@natalyaward4013]

Love all the restoration

[@michaelbedinger4121]

Interesting, thank you. One question if I may? The flange of the bayonet that fits on the rifle barrel seems to be missing part of the loop, I hope that is the right term for it? Is that gap in the loop how it was designed? Or did it just rust away? Thank you again.

[@michaelbedinger4121]

@Gareth T Thank you very much for the information, and for getting back to me. Have a great day.

[@T_B]

WOW! 💪

[@dreamsareweird8029]

Legends say the sword is still rusty to this day

[@danielw7060]

Would spray welding be a bad thing for these types of restorations? This ones an older setup you may be interested in minus the lathe

[@naderyehya2962]

Waw what an amazing job how much for a fully restored piece like that?

[@piasteroluywerty5905]

Те що відкрутилась кнопка і збереглась пружина це просто чудо для такого стану ножа.

[@ReXtorer]

це ще не поганий стан)))

[@armandoarturorosabalsanche7173]

Well done My Friend, from, Bayamo, Cuba

[@BalamJurgenEnnsDominguez]

Whats the button for?

[@ceydanehircelik9715]

Its so gooooooooodddddd

[@Lord_Burberry]

Its not perfect but fine 👍

[@locker1325]

Very very cool. I wonder if you could make the descriptive font a little more visible and bold. I missed them sometimes.

[@ReXtorer]

Hi. I will make it more visible

[@restorerestoration4705]

..good job..

[@tomg7008]

The right sand blasting would take the dark spots out of without losing much steel.

[@robertocavalcante5216]

Amazing ❤

[@markcoates9721]

Hello @ReXtorer love watching your videos I always try to keep an eye out for similar items. Can you tell me what is the bit that you use to grind out all the rust in the pits and where can I get the bit from please? Many thanks Mark

[@ReXtorer]

Hi! It is diamond engraving bits. a.co/d/aS8yU1a

[@gizmobro5760]

Nice job.

[@RestorationAustralia]

Cool 👍

[@fkrestoration]

Good work brother

[@shayimalanazi8263]

I am asking , where do you find these things ?! And how you can get them ?!

[@mikarhg]

the fact that this could have ran someone threw in wwi just like paul from aqotwf is just heartbreaking

[@mikarhg]

obviously a bad comparison because this is a german bayonet but you get the idea

[@fkrestoration]

You are a professional

[@michaelwisdom1867]

I use to use diesel to soak best yet and after using guide a few times I strained it through a old t shirt and used in my car

[@PenDragonsPig]

very rare, only millions made.

[@bradeycarvey8637]

Really really liket the video

[@MrJohnnygalan]

I have seen many gunsmiths boil pieces in water to convert the existing rust layer after the initial cleaning. What made you choose cold blue instead?

[@nickreyes3207]

You sure your watching boiling in water the old technique includes severely burnt coffee grounds

[@user-tu2oy5vh5j]

Труд огромный! Попробуйте 30 минут поработать наждачной бумагой по дереву😊.Мастеру Браво!!!

[@wadejewell2167]

And really like your stuff

[@charlesbarber5157]

I own a number of WWI and WWII bayonets, I have never seen an all metal one. They have wooden handles and metal blades

[@ccbphoto]

Another great restoration!

[@johnfletcher2445]

As usual fantastic job sir

[@pablobarros610]

Super like!

[@user-jl3cj3vu2z]

nice

[@johnbracken1173]

Where do you get your pieces from? I would love to have a go

[@ReXtorer]

Most of the things are my personal finds

[@tomg7008]

wire brush before a mild sand blasting ?

[@Mahmoud_Galal_Abdelbasit]

Question, why you don’t (plug weld) then (grind smooth) to remove all these scars on the sword? Thank you.

[@JohnnyBeesh]

how do you find the crunchiest rust ever? I really like your stuff - ima subbin.

[@trishblackman7403]

I love crunchy rust😊

[@av8tore71]

I would have used a media blaster and acorn shells on this bayonet

[@alrio8102]

Why not start the rust removal process with the wire wheel? It seems to me that it would remove 90% of the rust immediately.

[@zou6492]

Another beatiful restoration, Friend,👏👍 Friendship from Belgium 😉🇧🇪😉

[@user-qc8du6vy2q]

Страшна зброя!Гарна реставрація.

[@nordicson2835]

Nice work and a lot of work, respect.

[@timi328_7]

Looks tasty..

[@CitricAciid]

I would love to see how well the baking soda and water combo would work on something like this…

[@xudusgaming1778]

Just gotta fill all the pitts then sand/polish it up.

[@EinsamerWanderer]

Wooooow 😮😮😮😮

[@vloggerstories]

keren banget

[@redroad53]

What would the rifle look like that this bayonet fit to?

[@tadeogomez7303]

I wonder, what'd happen if you were to leave something in the electrolysis tank for over three hours? Every video of yours I've seen has had it there for three hours, no more, no less.

[@ReXtorer]

Nothing will happen. The current decreases, the reaction is not so active. The time of electrolysis depends on the size of the object.

[@christopherheckman9333]

U would the handle be rusted like who makes knives with mettle grips

[@user-kn3yw1lc8p]

Обожнюю дивитись як облуплюється іржа, прямо нерви заспокоює😅

[@dimamaryn1339]

Так, справді гарна робота! Вашій майстерні бракує піскоструменевого апарату) Дороге задоволення, але воно того варте.

[@ReXtorer]

Дякую! Планую придбати)

[@akhileshdheer3050]

what is the use of spring on saber🤔🤔🤔

[@captaindarling1509]

a welders slag hammer saves all that prep and electrolysis

[@user-ij1wt2jl8v]

замечательно

[@nicecoinsnumismatica-th3jh]

In questo caso un “ottimo”lavoro.Complimenti

[@MillwalltheCat]

Anyone have any idea why it was covered in sand and cement?

[@SimonRileyGhost329]

Soldier Probably Left It Near Cement In Ww1

[@burntboi8387]

To anyone who sees this just know god loves you

[@vitaliytoropov5594]

Видео у тебя супер!👍👍👍Человек от Бога!👍👍👍Так держать!👍👍👍

[@nickreyes3207]

Where was it found???

[@ReXtorer]

Eastern Front - Ukraine.

[@5.562]

А не простіше було б, цей багнет очистити піскоструйкою?

[@FortyWink]

Anyone got any info on the soldier listed? 17:41 Wilhelm Reihert, I believe is the name.

[@marklammas2465]

That one looked like it was buried in concrete or something!

[@O-Shoonyam-O]

⭕ Watch it in 2x Speed ⭕

[@k4rec4]

Buy a sandblaster or a laser cleaner... please.

[@laevateintechnology5634]

It kinda look like a sword, but a very short sword

[@MagicRestoration]

Amaizing! I can’t imagine how can you make so many videos? One per week! What is your secret? Are you working around the clock?:)

[@p0rtalsg4ming59]

Probably doing a few at a time. Rust removal takes time, and not all of it is hands on.

[@AlexanderL23]

Still look old 😢 it needed to be shine I mean it's an antique from the WW1

[@exclusiveday766]

strange to think that if this is real, that knife was probably used to kill someone.

[@mistysammons9846]

That knife is older than the Eiffel tower

[@tron2102]

It was pretty gone. Guy did a great job with what he had.
