I can’t believe you took off the original lettering. That was the entire authenticity of it. I just stared at the screen shocked you would do that.

[@davedoughty1213]

What an incredible restoration and transformation of a sad knife to a proud warrior!! Patience and skill are in your toolbox for sure! Great demonstration of talent and art!! Well done sir!! The Old Army Scout…

[@garywimer2071]

Beautiful job. Better than new! Thanks

[@douglaswhite1346]

My dad was on the Wasp and this was an awesome video to watch. Thanks for sharing

[@zathrasnotzathras655]

So was mine. I’d love to find one of these knives for him.

[@TheJpybus282]

My grandfather was also. I have one of his tour books from the fifties.

[@taytase]

I’m literally laughing out loud about the great tomato switcharoo near the end. Nice work too!

[@rbell7666]

OK, that was funny! I can do thinner slices with my meat cleaver.

[@edgedtalons]

It's funny cause I was thinking not too long ago what would a real professional/expert Craftsman look like repairing an old slip joint, Now I have seen it. I truly enjoyed watching you work and look forward look forward to future videos. I also now understand the slip showing much better. Thanks again

[@rheller666]

My grandfather served aboard the USS Wasp in WWII. Thanks for bringing back some memories of him.

[@c.j.cleveland7475]

Great job on the restoration! I gotta say, though, were it I doing it I definitely would not have scraped off the original letters. Even if they were worn they were a solid connection to the ship and it's history. Other than that, well done!

[@mauricefaulkner455]

I agree, would've kept the letters at all costs including most the staining

[@terrybledsoe1509]

Totally agree. It is (in my opinion) a reproduction using old metal. Lost its character and providence. Great jog with the restoration. I will add, his knife, his choice.

[@SuperKlaus74]

Das mit der Tomate fand ich klasse 😂😂😂👍👍👍

[@wvtrooper1615]

Overall, nice job but I cannot believe that you elected to scrap the original lettering on the handle!! 😳

Maybe coat the letters with a coat of clear lacquer. That would protect them and make it look nice as well. Thumbs Up!

The USS Wasp (CV-7) US Navy aircraft carrier commissioned April 25th, 1940 and scuttled after an attack by Japanese submarine I-19, September 15th, 1942. Also, USS Wasp (CV-18) launched 1943 and served until 1972.

[@richardsmith7783]

I have a bad habit of keeping thing for a long time, I still have a CASE XX Knife, yellow trapper 2 blade, That i have NEVER away from my pocket for 18 and 1/2 years now! I had 2 blades made for it. .....I still have a Takamine Guitars i had made in 1979 and it plays and sounds just as good as it did brand new! .............If you ever have a knife that the blades are stuck and can't open this is one great way to open it >>>> Take a shoe string.... wrape around the knife ......Holding some of the shoe string in your hand and the knife in same hand with thumb ( out side in grass ) throw the knife hard at the grass so it will spin on the way down...... The blades will fly open!!....

[@lostandrestored]

That shoe string trick is a nice tip! Maybe I'll use it in a video when the need arises.
