Great thanks

[@Austeration]

I'm sure this will be amazing. Can't wait for the Premier.

[@Take_And_Make]

Thanks!

Угреродка в обкладках из углеродки, выполнена кузнечной сваркой. Станочный парк неплохой, к гриндеру не помешал бы : синусный столик, плоскошлиф и контуровочные ролики. Хорошо что реставрировали этот кливер. Отличная работа.

[@Take_And_Make]

Спасибо, Олег!

[@sammyjo8109]

Beautiful job! That was a lot of work. I admire your skill. My grandfather had a cleaver he used when he butchered hogs and cows. He had a foot operated grinding wheel to sharpen it. He sat on a seat and to use it. That was over 60 years ago.

[@Take_And_Make]

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing that!

[@JorgePetraglia2009]

The part I liked the most is when you test the sharpening with real materials,turning paper into confetti (like many do) it is not what a cleaver was ever intended. You are good amigo, keep these videos coming. Greetings from Toronto.

[@Take_And_Make]

I know, right? Every time I saw someone cutting paper with cleaver, hatchet or an axe I couldn't get it... Why? They meant to chop!!! Greetings from Alberta.

[@124adams]

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!

[@Take_And_Make]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@codybrooks8333]

Work of art sir

[@Take_And_Make]

Thank you, sir!

[@tctc8578]

Turned out super nice, likes that the handle was simple and not too busy like some restorers do. Great craftsmanship man!! 👍👏😒

[@Take_And_Make]

Glad you liked it!

[@Blacksmith1967]

Awesome work man 👍👍👍👌💪

[@Take_And_Make]

hypnotic video

[@user-ql9nf4zu2u]

Да это самый лучший тесак для рубки мясо который я когда-то видел.

[@Take_And_Make]

Cпасибо!

[@jimgoddard5672]

Awesome, love the handle, and I also like the way u leave the old character of the blade. I did miss the voice over! Keep up the great work 🍻

[@tylerm8622]

I missed the voice over too. I am a fabricator by trade so I know what he is doing. I just like his voice. Lol

[@Take_And_Make]

Thanks guys! I will be talking more in my future videos, thank you for watching!

[@jimgoddard5672]

This is one of my favorite channels, keep it real😀

[@Take_And_Make]

Will do!

[@ethandanstrom6883]

The VoiceOver is my favorite part! I have sung the elbow grease song more than a few times while working on things.

[@josemariacerverarecio1789]

[@benholmgren8138]

I think that's a great setup for the handle! however I think you went a little too slim on the end. Try making the end a bit bigger to prevent hand slippage and to prevent the end from splitting (or microcracking). Overall great restoration! love your vids, would like to see more!

[@johnheckles8239]

Change title to “If Michelangelo did knives” 😂👍🏻

[@Take_And_Make]

Hahaaah! Thanks!

[@TheHairlessGibbon]

Nice. I like that the video of your processes do not waste time but are damd thorough where it needs be. Easy to follow and watch. There must have been a Hell of a lot of editing and persistence to get to the stage of presenting this well honed video. A question please ? What is the holding ring (hollow, sheath like onto wood) between the handle and blade called ? I'm trying to track down this item or something I can purchase pre made and barstardise if need be. Having a name for this "thing" would be Damd helpfully. Thank you.

[@Take_And_Make]

Thank you! I believe you mean bolster or guard? Hope it helps!

[@user-vp2zw2ni1f]

Красиво получилось . С вашими способностями можно попробовать и руки Венере Милосской восстановить ! 🤗

[@Take_And_Make]

Ну тогда она уже перестанет быть Венерой Милосской! :)

[@viktorwilms1905]

Только не путайте,извините за выражение,хуй с пальцем,это ремесленник,хоть и талантливый,а там кюнстлер.этот тесак опять заржавеет через сотню лет,а та так и будет стоять вечно.

[@ericfg806]

Any idea where this blade was originally made?

[@Take_And_Make]

I bought it on eBay, it came somewhere from Manitoba. So Canadian and definitely hand forged. Not sure how old though, could 100 years easily

[@paulb2315]

I am wondering why you chose one rivet?

[@Take_And_Make]

One 3/8 rivet is more than enough, there’s plenty of epoxy too, on top of it this is a hidden tang handle.

[@charleswyse1116]

I would like to know what is the make of the yellow box cutter so I can get on please

[@Take_And_Make]

Not sure what you talking about, what yellow box cutter?

[@charleswyse1116]

In the video you use a yellow cutting knife to cut the black matting for the handle. It’s that yellow cutter that I would like the information on Thank you for your quick response. Charlie

[@charleswyse1116]

I found what you have cutter [OLFA L-1 or L-2 or L-2 (5004)] which one? Thanks

[@kjgas6945]

👍👍🤠🤠

[@ncr1351]

Full steel polished mirror Finnish would have added to the handles glory. Blade looked worked but rejuvenated but handle looked young. All in real neat job, well done. Let me add, not a technical guy, just an ordinary person

[@Take_And_Make]

Thank you! All I can say - different people different tastes! I enjoy my restored blades with those scars of the past.

[@ncr1351]

Yes, you are master

I did like your comments. Sorry to see you leaving the channel.

[@highlander1424]

это там линия хамон внезапно оказалась? на ржавом старом ноже?

[@Take_And_Make]

Это не хамон, режущая кромка выполнена из другого металла, вставлена сваркой ковкой. Так же делали топоры раньше.

[@highlander1424]

@@Take_And_Make вообще любопытно) получается не штамповка а ручной работы

[@Take_And_Make]

О, да! Это однозначно ручная ковка была, видно по разнице толщин самого клинка, что делалось руками и очень давно! Свободно может быть 100-летним.

И на том спасибо!

Pourquoi n'avez-vous pas mis un j'aime sur mon commentaire 👍 Je comprends de cela qu'il n'est pas voulu en ma présence Désolé je demande la résiliation de mon abonnement te souhaite du succès

[@ChrisSmith-lo2kp]

that's a painful looking scrape on your right index finger

[@Arthurian.]

The handle is too square to be practical and there was literally NO reason to "heat treat" that blade again. That's a common lie amongst the refurbishing channels. Nothing loses it's heat treat over time. It also doesn't have a hamon. A hamon is achieved by full submersion.

[@Take_And_Make]

Dude, you have to learn to think before you speak up! The reason because I heat treated is that I overheated the blade while repairing it with welding. Second I agree, it doesn’t have hamon indeed, what you see is a different steel forge welded for the edge which showed after etching. So go shoot some arrows and relax, warrior! 🤣
