I did not expect to watch all 19 minutes of this. But I did in fact watch all 19 minutes of this

[@philmastman2490]

Not only are your restorations amazing, I must compliment you on the quality of your video production. Camera work, lighting and editing are impeccable.

[@drew64inTX]

Great restoration You sir, are very talented.

[@masterk5372]

Right

[@marianitosan9759]

It’s a fake

[@andrewsteinberg7103]

not a fake, Ive done it with hand tools, no expensive machinery@@marianitosan9759

[@susanmcmasterson956]

Wow, that’s sharp! Never use this to stab your classmates or little kitties and puppies to death. Ok, kids? I feel like that’s definitely the lesson here.

[@mi1r2]

Looks very pretty.

[@andrelaszlo]

Wow, beautiful. Usually old knife restorations look tacky or off somehow, but I think you nailed it making it look personal but still classic.

[@Dungeon_Nick]

A lot of restoration videos are faked

[@henryhendrixx]

I love that your restorations actually RESTORE the item to its original condition and aren't just 40 pounds of bondo covered with paint. Excellent job as always!

[@youhavenothingifyoudonthav9895]

You sound like me . I feel the same about how alot of folks do this work . I've restored over 200 + Knives . So I'm very particular .as to how to do a knife .

[@martyjehovah]

Using a bunch of bondo so you can skip the hard work of sanding is definitely a bad thing that some restorers are guilty of, but there are also times when bondo/filler is the right move, and unfortunately a lot of people are under the impression it is always lazy and bad. For example if an antique part is thin, and deeply pitted it would be better to clean/stop further rusting and then use filler to even out the surface rather than sanding the part to oblivion or outright replacing it with new parts and ruining the piece's originality. Bondo is just another tool in your toolbox that under very specific circumstances is the better choice.

[@kaufmanat1]

40 pounds of bondo? How big are your pocket knives?

[@saulrudolph7450]

[@nakedhombre]

This is a tremendous video and I’m sure that the lessons learned in taking something like this apart and attempting to restore it is worth it just for the learning experience and displaying the steps one must do, however, went after laboriously cleaning up the main blade and then it snapped, into two pieces, it also reflects another valuable lesson which is that some things are too far gone to restore and you should just buy new!!! But the final product is just stunning and you have made a very high class video👍🏼

[@IgorANUR]

Отлично отреставрировали нож,вдохнули новую жизнь в старичка!😊Плашки получились огненные!🔥

[@charlestatem3099]

Brilliant restoration.

[@philippheyho7264]

its always great to see how old tools and knives are getting a second chance to shine

[@OfficialSparklyPig]

When I was a child, I was playing with a Swiss knife of my fathers'. I had not handled one before. I had the main blade out, and went to close it, and it was hard to close. It finally flipped closed - directly onto my thumb! I still have the scar now at age 38. I love your channel and work and beer reviews, it is a fun combination and I always look forward to your next video.

[@valspaulding8644]

Beautiful work, a real work of art and skill. Anyone who wins this will have a treasure for life

[@sharondunn6188]

Yes please, I would make good use of this beauty! 😀

[@montanaylago]

The combination of colors on the handle is exquisite! And is such a cool thing to have different wood from your different projects… nice restoration!

[@Rumble600]

This channel really deserves a lot more subscribers! I'm always blown away by these restorations, and this one is no exception. Most people would have tossed that knife in the trash, but you turned it into something beautiful. Keep it up!

[@RicardoBachman]

What this channel needs is a manicure. The entire thing is so beautifully put together. The dirty nails just kinda takes away from it.

[@TheBigbrother47]

BEAUTIFUL KNIFE

[@NTRprojects]

Glad to hear that you liked it so much larry dore

[@miarosie]

I think that probably the best part of this restoration is the history of all parts. Given the choice of quality used over new, i’d always go used. I love to hold wood in particular knowing its been held and crafted before. I love old watches for the same reason. Never having had a Swiss army knife, this old gal would be delighted to own this one - or buy any other you restore in the future. Tastefully done.

[@vickiefowler1429]

A beautiful restoration for a classic “multi tool”. The colors and textures of the woods are arranged nicely. This is something anyone would be proud to use and show off!

[@charlesjordan8511]

what an awesome job

[@GraphicDesignerStephen]

Rally nice job. Enjoy the significance of the different woods used in the scales. Whoever wins this will be lucky to have it.

[@The4ndres]

Love the fact you used wood scrap from past projects for the scales; That's some palpable storytelling right there! And it looks like a bad-ass coral snake! Amazing job

[@Taliber]

Beautiful wood work. It’s so nice to see a restoration with more than just metal working skill. The sentimental nature is wonderful as well. Excellent work!

[@mizsherm4352]

I enjoyed every single minute watching the restoration, it is amazing.

[@gideonlapidus8996]

This is what I call REAL craftsmanship

[@SeanBZA]

Beautiful job there, must be very old, as I do not think Victorinox has made wooden sheathed knives for a long time, but still the classic look on it, and a great job on fixing it as well. I have a similar one which I used regularly, till the knife itself wore out, and the clip for the lanyard wore through. Repaired that with silver solder, but eventually it had to become a drawer piece. Aluminium sides, with the NATO issue number on it, the proper military version. Great knives, and that it was still so sharp after so long in a field is testament to the great design and good material choice. Your choice of replacing the wood with the same is great, though you really made it shine with all the colours chosen in the selection of wood used. A top job on this one, showing your attention to details, even in small parts.

[@NTRprojects]

Thank you so much for this detailed feedback and your story as well

[@thomaszarski5100]

Did you choose to stabilize the wood first, or not an option?

[@suisseanonyme1033]

I have a really sad fact to said... it isn't a victorinox knife, victorinox never produced these can opener, some can opener were close, but still not the same. But if you want a good new, victorinox still product knife with wood scales.

[@NTRprojects]

So happy to have stumbled upon you channel, so soothing to watch. Curious if you guys have PB Blaster or other similar penetrating oil in Germany. I use it in lots a spots for rusted and seized hardware when wd-40 isn't the best choice

I enjoy your videos. You did a great job on the knife. I couldn't re assemble it if my life depended on it. Nice work.

[@javanthomas4122]

When is the drawing for the knife.

[@rubberdub5269]

A thing of beauty, well done

[@sallydevaux]

Absolutely exquisite, I found this very relaxing, probably because you did all the work. So gratifying to rescue something old and in bad shape and making it useful again. A piece of art. It’s a credit to you, worthy of a cold beverage. Stay safe 🙏

[@panatteri]

Actually, I think it is you who is supporting the many of us as you transport us into a realm of craft, care with materials - with positive messages of longevity and giving new life into these projects as the present themselves. Thank you.

[@NTRprojects]

This gave me goosebumps. Thank you for this motivational feedback

[@panatteri]

This stuff is so interesting to watch. Especially when refurbing a used up tool!

[@abilangbridge3136]

Wow, this restoration is honestly so beautiful, the design of that wood cover and the history behind all of the wood swatches is really ingenious! Never stop restoring (or drinking beer!)

[@pamelabraman7217]

Beautiful as always The part I like the best about watching you is not just your skill with the restorations, but your ability to see the potential in a piece of wood that others would just throw away. I definitely agree with you about the fizz in the beer, just the fact that it didn't produce a good head was enough to tell that.

[@general5104]

VERRRRRY GOOD RESTORATION video. Thank you.

Very Impressive restoration, I was shocked at the before and after. It looks beautiful!

Instantly a new favorite channel of mine! The bloodwood provides the flair, and the whole thing is an appreciation to a deep idea that anything is possible, no matter how broken you think you are. Just beautiful.

[@SeraTops3]

I have to say yours has totally become one of my favourite channels. I’ve been following you for over the past year and it’s been so great to see how it’s blossomed. Great work, friend!!!

This is amazing! I remembered exactly the same knife I used to make boats with as a child.

[@paulchapin4472]

A beautiful knife. Anyone would be proud to own it and show off your talent. Cheers!

[@chrislanini8389]

Outstanding work as always. The way the new wood coverings were made gives it a ton of character. Great job!

[@victorpaulino8078]

What a beautiful work! The combination of these types of wood made the difference! I almost cried watching this video because I remembered a pocket knife of my grandpa that passed away in 2018 and we were so close to each other.

[@fabiandaroca]

Unmistakable beauty!!!!!

[@raggedrobin2341]

I follow a few restoration channels, and I’ve looked at many others. What sets your work apart from ALL of them is the creativity you apply. It’s what makes me look forward to each video. My young daughter is starting to get into restoration KZbin. I’d love to be able to gift her this knife one day! (She‘ll have to wait a bit longer for the beer though.)

[@NTRprojects]

That sounds nice. I'm crossing fingers. Thank you so much for the feedback

I have an original swiss army knife in a similar model to this. Means a lot to me. Brings a smile to my face to see this restored. Love to see your unique wooden pieces put to good use. The blood wood looks amazing. Well done.

[@pjhalchemy]

Outstanding save and restoration, Dr.! Your choices of the old wood were spot on, especially the 400yr old oak (richness of the grain) and overall the scales are beautiful and well fit. Always a treat to see what is possible to restore something so dead with care and attention to details. Thanks for all you bring to those who appreciate precision and integrity of restoration...and a good story! Cheers!

[@alexdeleon7135]

Congratulations on reaching 41,300+ subscribers! This proves that the things you do are great to watch, and always highlight your skill with metallurgy, woodworking, and restoral processes. The thing that impressed me the most in this episode was the making of the broken copper plates. You not only produced exact copies out of a copper sheet, but you nickel plated them as well for authenticity, as well as protection! I admire that you chose a multi laminated handle for this knife. This gives the finished knife a distinct personality, and uniqueness. Well done! I hope your subscribers continue to grow as the years pass. NO TO WAR.
