You should patent the reamer design for orthopedic surgery. There is probably a use for it. Different sizes and shapes. That knife is just beautiful.

[@dhs186]

so glad you could save the stag! so beautiful

[@paulcaton7093]

Great job on that handle - customer ought to be very happy when they see it.

[@famasmaster2000]

This knife has been given a whole new life . Just stunning Kyle !! Beautiful job . Can't wait to see it slice and dice some paper next 😀👍

[@larrybeller1844]

Nice work my Friend 👍

[@davidleavy2016]

I’m glad you reused the stag.

[@roostershooter76]

In all honesty, that knife probably looks better now than when it was new! Good job!

[@michelem9341]

Can’t wait for phase 3

[@yellowdog762jb]

Kyle, I can say with good authority that your restoration looks as good as new because I have a very similar knife that I purchased in new, unused condition sometime in the late ''70s at a flea market in central Georgia. I bought it from a guy with a table full of knives, so I have no way of knowing if my knife was a recent production, or an older model he picked up wholesale as factory close out. I did a quick check online and I came across a number of similar knives that say they are made by Edge Brand. Mine is stamped "Edgemark" and Solingen, Germany on one side, and 426 on the other side. I never noticed until you pointed it out, but the sheath is stamped Solingen Western Germany. The stitching threads are very thin, I think the manufacturer relied on the rivets to hold the leather together more than the stitching. There is a stamped image of a stag on the sheath. The guard on mine is a large rounded oval shape, it does not have the little knobs on the ends. My knife came as a set of two. The second, smaller blade is a caping blade that rides in a smaller sheath affixed to the front of the sheath. The blades came uncoated with sort of a satin finish, not mirror finish, but bare metal. The stag handles are one piece on both of mine, I just double checked. They have the same decorative red spacers and the same pommel construction as the one you feature. I couldn't find anything on a steel called 426, so I assume that 426 is a model number and not a type of steel. Years ago I used a Lansky system to put a very fine edge on the blade, like one would put on a filet knife. My bad. It was scalpel sharp but it was easy to turn the edge slightly when cutting through deer and hog bone joints. The metal didn't chip, if that gives anyone an indication of the steel type. I went back and put a steeper angle on the edge, whatever the middle setting is on a Lansky, I can't recall right now. After that, the knife held a great edge and I have used it to clean a good number of deer and wild hogs. I eventually switched to a drop pointed blade for cleaning animals, but this knife is still my backup. The upturned, Bowie style blade is not great for gutting animals, but it's nice for skinning them. Edge retention is very good, I can clean several deer with it before I have to touch up the blade. Often, a few passes on a strop are all it needs to return to hair shaving sharpness. The handles are nicely shaped and they really fit the hand nicely. It's a very comfortable knife to work with. Based on how well the edge has held up I feel like the steel is good quality. Stag antler handles are not easy to come by, or affordable nowadays. If the style of the knife suits your needs, I think the quality and beauty of the knife for the price is very worth it.

Looks great . Thank you for broaching the handle and not grinding the tang into needle .

[@roycolglazier1061]

Absolutely the PRIDE of any deer or moose camp, anywhere! Sweet restore, Kyle...

[@karlyoung5089]

[@TimParker-Chambers]

I knew this was going to be stunning 🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍

[@Justwatching746]

Amazing job! So cool that you were able to harden the marrow and bring it back to life.

[@paullambert4445]

Again a knife that looks better than when it was knew. I do a lot of leather work. I want to see how the sheath turns out. Thanks

[@co8539]

Kyle if I may recommend labeling your multi-part videos. I didn’t realize this was the second video you had done for this knife and I like to watch them from the start

[@troybranaman316]

Its a Gorgeous knife now Kyle! You really made a huge difference in it . I really love the way it turned out. Great video as always Kyle! Take care and stay safe my friend!!

[@terryw.milburn8565]

[@Mark-ew5jm]

Magnificent…..you are an absolute craftsman Kyle.

[@tobinlakeguideservices]

Turned out very nice. Good work Kyle

[@Lazarus-aap]

It looks absolutely stunning! Great job, Kyle! Love it!

[@MrEric0822]

Beautiful work!

[@robertbrandywine]

Beautiful restoration! I was afraid you were going to put a new handle on it. Would it make sense to spray lacquer the brass parts?

[@ingelri2]

Ugh, I know the feeling of having a messy shop. Whenever I start a new project, the first thing I do is clean the shop.

[@saltwater8915]

13:33 .. I think that is very, very sorted :) just shows how a knife can be beautiful & practical at the same time

[@edwardralphsmithbezuidenho492]

awesome transformation

[@chrisjames3087]

Nice work, Kyle.

[@TheHallbjorn]

The specialized tool for carving the handle from the inside out was very clever--but is there a reason you wouldn't just file the tang slightly instead?

[@garysorrells8133]

Great work Kyle.

[@ronmacdougall9612]

Very nice

[@donaldanderson3249]

Beautiful job 👏

[@Ebonborn]

You should get the client reacting in your videos. I think it would elevate the videos!

[@RuhrpottOutdoor]

Nice! 🤙🏻

[@holmes1978]

Gorgeous

[@swingbelly]

Kyle. Where did you get that forked tool to set the screw in the end of the tang to secure the pommel to the leather handle. If not available retail, is there an alternative method. My old German hunting knives need some restoration. Thanks, Norm

[@thierrypasquet1503]

Du très beau travail, bravo.

[@dutarus1]

What kind of wrench or key tool did you use to tighten the bottom part of the pommel?

[@nathjohn3158]

Great job but I hate that handle, should have just got you to do a leather stack, would look so much better.

[@jamesmoore768]

Great work Kyle God Bless You and all the Family!

[@Desecrator6]

that fuller though

[@jamesparker6383]

great video , turned out beautifully, who was the maker of that knife by the way?

[@outdoors_with_joe]

Emil Voos Solingen

[@jeffleisure6442]

what is that type of guard called?

[@thedrunkenswede3364]

Dang son

[@robertbrandywine]

You have an interesting local accent. Is it Canadian?

[@1161byron]

Is that a marbles knife?

[@scipio7837]

smallest chainsaw file could open that key followed by a women's nail file for the 90s

[@user-jx4dr6ox6u]

Deberías callarte un poco y trabajar más hermano 🙏 ,ya q realmente son hermosas piezas y tus restauraciones muy buenas, Pero mucho bblablabla

[@scottlanghorst1483]

Gee, I wonder if that box is from Amazon?🤭

[@CrAzZyTheCodingBoss]

That’s a sword, not a knife… 😊

[@fishingunboxingsandreveiws7226]

Thats a purdy knife

[@peshkabz]

I've got a soligen knife it's 13 inch with the handle and the blade is 8 & a half inch it's number 46 and says robin on it is it any good
