Restoration of SILVER Dagger - I SAVED it from Vandals!

Hello folks! Today I am restoring a Georgian silver dagger of Caucasian type. The item was made in the late 19th and early 20th century in Eastern Georgia. The blade can be said to be fine, but the scabbard is badly damaged, especially the silver parts. There is no lower part, the upper one is practically broken. I haven't done this kind of work yet, but I'll come up with something.
The first duty I took apart the scabbard and tried to restore them, but the difficulty lies elsewhere. If you make new accessories for the scabbard, but you will not be able to apply it to what is left of them. You also need not brass, but silver or nickel silver.
I made a new scabbard and pasted them with thick leather. I took out an old piece of silver with blackening and carving for the dagger handle and an old silver rivet of the same type. The silver was soldered by a jeweler, and I added the missing part to the dagger handle.
After long discussions with the masters, I decided to leave the upper part of the scabbard, but remove the damaged parts. After waiting for a long time, I finally got the missing parts and collected the entire dagger. As usual, I did the test and now my collection has expanded! I hope you will like this restoration video!
SSincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!

Великолепная работа, всё подобрали как надо, отдельный респект за русские субтитры.

[@Dr_Eber]

Вот именно с ними смотрим.

[@annettemalaski1967]

Nice! You gave the handle and blade only what it needed! You really did need a new scabbard! Great job on both!

[@antonsp]

Beautiful restoration!!! It is a pleasure to watch your work and attention to details!

[@user-dz8dg6ey8g]

Смотрю твои классные видосы, читаю субтитры. Ну ты Алекс крутой братан, такие вещи делаешь, загляденье. Сохраняешь старину не теряя качества. Спасибо за видео, лайк однозначно.

[@ericcartrette6118]

I really appreciate how you did a minimal amount of work to rescue that blade and bring it back to life. The results look terrific!

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thank you!

[@funnymoments6988]

Yeah! New video❤❤❤ thank you!

[@user-gd8zd3ye1f]

Вот это я понимаю - ножик! Клинок в хорошем состоянии, новые ножны, реставрированная рукоятка! Шикарная, профессиональная работа, истинного Мастера, с золотыми руками! Было бы здорово узнать как называются части кавказского холодного оружия. Если можно, снять видео с националтными названиями деталей кинжала, бебута, шашки, палаша и что там ещё я позабыл... Вот это тоже надо. Удачи и творческих успехов тебе Мастер!

[@stevedoolanTacoma]

I have seen many channels that do restorations of blades. None of them make scabbards for the blades. Watching you carve them and cover them is my favorite part of your process. Thank you for sharing your passion with us normal humans.😎

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Glad to read! Thank you!

Just Blepping wonderful !!!

This should be in a museum. Retooling any of it destroys the history. Now it's lost.

[@texaswader]

Nicely done! It's great that you saved that old cool dagger. Excellent work.
