Restoration Rusty Bowie Knife - Iconic American Blade

[@markfergerson2145]

Colonel Bowie would be proud to carry that knife. As an American the Bowie knife has a special place in my heart. Your decision to go with the simple leather scabbard instead of the military-style sheath was wise. The handle decoration is appropriate for the time the knife was designed was also appropriate, completely practical. Your attempt to place a tubular rivet at the tip of the sheath was appropriate too as typically a leather thong would be used to tie the sheath to the user’s leg but it works and you made it, too. Using it to make your lunch was also appropriate as the knife was intended to be the survival knife of its day, the indispensable multitool a man would use for every task. Beep beep!

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thank you for the detailed and interesting review, merry Christmas and a wonderful new year! Beeep!

You turned that old knife into a beautiful and useful tool again. Excellent work. It's almost too good for potatoes.

[@Александр-з2ь1ь]

Шикарная работа. Спас классику. В старых ножнах еще бы лет 5 - 6 и каюк ножу. Рукоять вообще огонь 🫡🫡🫡🫡, отдельная благодарность за титры 🫡👍👍👍👍👍

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Да + очень странная конструкция, так я и не понял зачем. Спасибо!

[@applicationuser9764]

Right. I thought the handle material was beautiful. I'm not much into fancy decorative stuff but I really love the handle itself and the wood.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

@@applicationuser9764 thanks

[@АндрейБезымянный-ш6и]

Старые ножны делал чисто слесарь: зачем вам эти кожа или дерево? Сделаю металлические - будет навека. Или просто, хозяин - барин заказал эксклюзяшку в восточном стиле.

[@ВадимСтан]

А я и не знал,что вы мастер не только в мастерской ,но и на кухне😋замечательный нож,а от мяса я чуть слюной не подавился😄👍

[@georgebrown8312]

What a beautiful restoration job you did on that knife, and you did a good job of making a new sheath for it as well. It looks much better and it cuts like a razor-sharp knife. Excellent work.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thank you so much!

[@aldogomez8837]

Excellent work! Respecting the characteristics of the bowie knife! The case it came in was not a bowie case! Congratulations!

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thank you!

[@mikepetrucha2774]

I didn't think the handguard was brass until you polished it. The polished handguard and black hornbeam handle really looked good together, then you top it off with copper wire artwork. Alex, you are a true artist. At the end, your meal looked so good I had to go and cook something for myself.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thank you!

[@ledcrash]

Man, for real. When you unassembled that rusty knife I thought how would you do anything to transform full garbage into something. But you did it. That handler is by far your best work. Without the video nobody can say that beautiful knife is the same crap before the restoration. It's a masterpiece. One day somebody will study you because your mind is 1000 years ahead of us. It's mind blowing. Thanks for the video and beep beep.

Great job in restoring the Bowie Knife! And making a new handmade leather sheath! Badass! At one time in our history having a Great knife was as important as picking a good horse and a firearm to survive! Of the three? I'd choose a good Bowie Knife first!

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Благодарю, да и тут другой момент. Зачем такая конструкция, т.е. я видал разные. Например эвенкийские ножны, часто в 20-ом веке обтягивались консервной банкой, но там есть смысл, характер, подчерк. Тут не понял.

Посмотрел как Вы пробойником раздолбали первую заготовку и не понял - Вы же опытный мастер,зачем сразу пробойником в узкую полоску кожи? Надо было сделать также как Вы делали отверстия вдоль клинка для прошивки - просверлить отверстие и потихоньку расширить...🤷‍♂️

[@pickletreewoodcraft7858]

I really like what you did to the handle it’s very beautiful. I’m shocked people are offended with your handling of the sheath it’s not exactly a historical artifact and was unusual and unfitting for a Bowie knife. I can only imagine how good your cooking is that looks delicious!

[@williampanagopoulos656]

I. Doubt it's unfitting since it was made for it Metal scabbards are known, I understand they are bulkier and heavier than leather, yes... But many Bowies wernt.. exactly always made as actual survival tools... This could be even military issue and given a scabbard like a period sword Or it could've just been a showpiece.. a big scary blade with a nice scabbard for wearing

[@WoodWizardrybyColin]

Awesome work as always love the knife and that meal looked delicious

[@pickletreewoodcraft7858]

Tip for an inexpensive black wood, put oak into a sealed container with a bowl of ammonia in it for a day and exposure to ammonia vapor turns the oak black. Also it sounds like you have the same problem I do when sandblasting the compressor struggles, if you use a wire wheel to pre clean the parts it’s less work for the sandblaster.

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Thanks for the feedback. I'm still thinking of putting a filter in the compressor, but I don't know how yet... moisture collects and after 15 minutes or more of work begins to interfere with the sand.

I really enjoyed this, thank you. I would consider that a short sword, maybe a shortened sword due to damage? There is really no specifications for a true Bowie Knife so in that light it does qualify.

[@j.l.emerson592]

Like the broken sword in the US television series Branded? They kicked him out of the Army & broke his sword to dishonor him. He took the broken sword & made it into a big knife!

Доброй ночи, Алекс! Я в восторге от этого ножа! Люблю, когда вещь принадлежит вам и вы восстанавливает её по своему вкусу - всегда получается что-то обалденное! Очень красивый нож получился и ножны тоже! Но особенно красива рукоять! Скажите пожалуйста, этот черный граб - его древесина от природы черная или это что-то вроде морёного дуба, который столетиями под водой темнеет? Пришла к выводу сейчас, что за время, которое смотрю ваш канал, по прежнему ничего не понимаю в холодном оружии, но зато стала понимать каким оно может быть красивым, оно мне нравится ❤ и ваши кулинарные шедевры👍
