Restoration of Old Rusted Bowie Knife

[@johnday8771]

That is a BIG knife. Jim Bowie would be proud of that one. Great job again.

[@PolinaS-gq1te]

Отличная реставрация! В стали не разбираюсь совершенно, но очевидно, что она отличная- редко какой нож не затупится после рубки деревяшки поперек волокна👍👍

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Добрый вечер! Я бы сказал даже меня это удивило, я ждал замины (такое бывает в 90%) случаев, а тут еще и режет. Главное такая ржавая была, а качество топ

@@ScrewsAndTools я не знаю истории этого клинка, но не может ли так статься, что это остаток от меча Моркоу Железобетонсена?)))

Мне очень понравились каверны на клинке) сейчас производители ножей делают похожие, так называемые, "метеоритные " ножи, я даже хотел приобрести такой) а у Вас, так сказать, само время сделало такой клинок! Спасибо за видео, мастер! В каком-то смысле оно прощальное - для баночек и средства от ржавчины) И отдельное спасибо - за описание и комментарии, всё читаем)

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Привет, ну как "прощальное" я жидкость и т.д. оставил конечно же. Ибо порой такие "пациенты" что там именно или электролиз или средство. К примеру как топор пару недель назад, там и компрессор 200 л не справиться)

@@ScrewsAndTools согласен с Вами, попадаются разные случаи. Но, думаю, что пескоструй во многом убыстрит и где-то облегчит работу

You never disappoint me. That Bowie is perfection. There was nothing you did with that blade that wasn’t spot on. The only thing that upsets me about this one is that I can’t wear it on my belt. Keep doing what you are doing comrade.

keeping the pitting on the blade will always remind me of flint knapped tool heads which I love but don't have much practical use for. Got so excited when you brought antler out for the handle. Perfect choice even if it struggled to be born.

[@brianstephens8667]

Alex, again you have surprised me, Sir. When I saw how bad that was pitted and the cutting edge was destroyed, you said it was too thin to weld. I figured you would have to cut so much off it would be way smaller than the original but you did it again. That was a most impressive knife it took a beating and stayed sharp and strong. Great Job sir, you are a master!

"That's not a knife… THAT's a knife." 😍

[@KnifeQuestion]

Dear friend! I am a knife blogger from Russia. Your blade contains a lot of carbon, which is why it's so good. When overloaded, it can be brittle. I have seen similar results after tests with HSS steels, and other extra hard steels for work requiring wear resistance and hardness. Knowing that bowies liked to make files, I'm sure that my words are close to the truth. Keep it for yourself, it's a very good copy.

[@mred8002]

I remember ‘brazing’ brass parts decades ago. You have the join, but all the same color, and harder than solder. I used a dual carbon rod electrode with my Lincoln arc welder on a low setting.

[@oleg_konovalov]

Доброго дня, Алекс! Хороший нож получился! 👍 С вычислением марки стали на глаз, думаю будет проблемно, кто же знает из чего этот нож ковали или вытачивали... Разве что только в спец. лаборатории проверять. Но, главное что сталь хорошая. А рукоять из рога вообще шикарная получилась, хотя и пришлось помучиться при установке. И ножны отличные. Единственное что не понятно - для чего были установлены латунные накладки на клинке?... Скорее всего для красоты, я так думаю... Спасибо за очередное увлекательное видео! 👍

[@ScrewsAndTools]

Добрый вечер! Я думаю марки не узнаем, ибо нож копанный может быть поздний царских времен. Что касается накладок из латуни, я думаю это выделение "гарды" как вариант

[@oleg_konovalov]

@@ScrewsAndTools если ещё тех времён, то да, только в лаборатории проверять. Можно ещё твёрдость вычислить для интереса, но там и так понятно что не меньше 50-ти, я думаю. Про накладки, да, возможно и делали как что-то вроде гарды. Даже скорее всего так. Кстати, про то, как удлинить хвостовик трубкой, да ещё и без сварки, на заклёпках - это очень интересная идея! 👍
