That’s exactly how I learned to pre-drill all nail/screw holes in areas like this. Great project! Really liked the end product. Well done.

[@uniquethings6032]

Hehe you're right! 👍

Во всём этом видео меня несказанно порадовала пачка с надписью "Сода" 😄 Свои!!! Я сначала думала, что мне показалось, и даже во второй раз пересмотрела! Ан нет, не показалось ☺😉

[@sigmasik2146]

Тоже самое

[@terryrogers1025]

Interesting restorations, a couple of them I have watched before, however, I did watch them again and discovered a I had overlooked a process on the knife restoration, so I am glad I went back thru to see them. I wished you would have shown the trigger assembly on the pistol, I was really anticipating that spring to go flying across the shop 😮😊😂 not that I’m wishing you bad luck or anything, thanks for the restoration compilation, enjoyed it, nice work.

[@uniquethings6032]

Thank you, it's really nice to be appreciated for more than one video that has a lot of my soul put into it! And to tell you the truth, you're right. The "spring" did come apart. I tried three times to make an identical one and only one fit, but not like the original.....

[@Mlenski_restorations]

Very nice compilation of restorations. Results are perfect.👍

[@dukefanshawe6815]

Thank you for not putting $5 knives in a bucket, letting them rust and calling it a "rare" find.

Гарне відео, дякую.

[@GrayByrd]

absolutely beautiful work. Love the cleaver. I also like that you left some of the pitting. I would rather have one of these than a new one any day. Not only are you great at restoration, you are a talented artist and can make videos that are very engaging. I watched all the way through without stopping.

[@uniquethings6032]

Thank you for your wonderful words ❤

[@joelc-gc1hq]

Ridiculous, no need for the nail that ended up splitting the handle.The wedge that you put in did the job. Also this crap about pitted old steel and iron is nonsense,and that's why the older generations didn't look at things this way.

[@kanthvickram4490]

Bravo !!!!

[@pmckashik]

Красавчик❤

[@11bravo18]

Where you split the haft while driving the nail use a small bit in your drill press to drill a pilot hole thru the haft at or near the end of the split. The holes on either side of the haft will establish an entry point for the pilot point on a forstner bit, enabling you to bore counter sinks for a nut and washer on one side and bolt head on the other. The forstner's pilot point will give you a perfect entry point for a brad point drill bit the diameter of the bolt you decide to use. I'd fill the bolts countersinks with a mixture of epoxy and sawdust. If this procedure was carried out before your nail split the haft, or you had drilled a pilot hole for the nail, it may not have split at all. Just sayin.😁 Still a great job. Especially the annealing and re hardening in the oil bath. Its recommended to use long tongs and to stir the object being hardened.

[@phoneaddict3585]

That’s some good ass wisdom

I have just started to watch this video and fell in love with restoration thx for the amazing videos. 💯

[@mikel1199]

Hardening the metal in water first before the oil might shock it and cause it to become brittle. I've heard quenching in oil only is best because the metal cools a little slower which makes a stronger result. Great video though! Wanted to share what I've heard.

[@BlakeKane]

To be able to anneal you need sand to lower temp to room temp around 12 hrs. This thing you do looks like normalizing. In normalizing you relieve stress in annealing you lose all hardness. This video is 9 months in but may be it helps

[@uniquethings6032]

Of course, thank you so much!

Респект за тріщину

[@neiferst]

what kind of wood did you use to make a handle for a small ax?

[@theedcguy6568]

I would assume it to be hickory

[@michaelbradford4444]

Drill a pilot hole and use a screw. Less chance of splitting and much stronger.

[@johnfix5]

Hello, please tell me which compressor do you use for sandblasting?

[@uniquethings6032]

Hello. Werk BM-2T50N. But for more comfortable sandblasting i recommended buy compressor with more capacity than 50 liters. Good luck!

[@johnfix5]

Please also tell me what kind of sandblaster you use, I want to buy one for myself and I can't choose, thank you.@@uniquethings6032

[@ronbrown3552]

Predrill the hole for the nail (with smaller diameter) and then nailing head to the handle won't split the wood!

[@user-vn3tv5fk2w]

[@uniquethings6032]

Dziękuję bardzo!

[@michaeldaruwalla8717]

Really good restoration, however I feel that a brushed finish on the cleaver would stand out more. Also you have a wide audience as far away as India, seeing you give your cat depleted caustic soda to drink may cause some poor feline to undergo a very painful experience. ( I know that you had cat food on your glove). The other restorations were of the same high standard that we have come to expect.

[@uniquethings6032]

Yes, I didn't think about that. Thank you so much ❤️

[@style_mechanics7091]

Я конечно не учу, но на отрезке видео 10:41 изначально нужно было бы хотя бы просверлить сверлом меньшего диаметра чем гвоздь.

[@grupomusicalelite2193]

Le das un montón de baños y queda igual , una buena pulida que acabo, te gusta batallar

[@nickeypetersen5622]

Dammit I have a rusty axe. But not having all these tools. So I guess I don't have any chance to restore it🥴

[@krisaaron5771]

Based on the amount of rust and pitting compared to the quality of the metal an axe head, knife or sword is made of *is there any way to determine how long an object has been in the water or ground?* Guns can often be age-identified by the technology used to manufacture them and the firing methods that allow them to function, but swords and knives can be from almost any era. If you're hoping to find something collectable in what might be an ancient shipwreck would the amount of oxidation on the piece give you a good idea of how long it's been on the bottom of the lake or ocean?

[@mirotvoric]

Чтобы топорище не треснуло нужно было саморез выкручивать, или хотя бы предварительно просверлить узенькое отверстие.

[@boriskaru]

Да ладно тебе , ты уж очень строг на парня , ...сделал неплохо ,со вкусом

[@11bravo18]

I suggested the same. Drill a lesser diameter pilot hole for that nail, or better yet, do the same and use a screw. He had to fill the crack because he couldnt remove the nail to get the haft out of the head in order to bolt through the haft and close the nasty crack. The function of the tool would have been fine with the crack. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@11bravo18]

[@coffeecupcraftswithkelly2826]

What does the step “cold blue” mean and do for the restoration?

[@uniquethings6032]

Cold bluing is the process of applying a protective film to the surface of metal to protect it from corrosion. Hot bluing is the usual process of heating the metal to 500-600 degrees Celsius followed by cooling in oil
