Western Hunter pocket knife blade removal

[@mr.whipples411universe]

Yes Sir… heard about your channel from the Knife Doctor. Can’t wait to be able to go through your library of videos.

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@mr.whipples411universe thanks! There are not many yet - my KZbin channel is still young, and I work a lot of hours still. This is only a weekend hobby right now. Everyone is so supportive though!

[@howardkayecrabyman]

It looks good and you made it usable again 😊please be safe and GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸 🙏

[@KernArms]

A super job!.. I enjoyed the video. Thank you 👍

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@KernArms thank you!

[@billymckay5860]

The doc recommended your channel. Love your content and now I have a new channel to bing watch. Thank you sir!

[@southernknifehobbyist]

Thank you! I hope to keep adding about one video per week. Still working full time, so...

[@theknifedoctor]

Love this sir!! You've showed me some awesome shortcuts! Could you tell me about the little vice clamp you used to press the spring into place in order to install the pin? I have subscribed sir and will be giving you a shout out. So glad I came across your channel!

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@theknifedoctor , thank you! I have watched several of your videos in the past. I've been piddling around with knives for a few years, yet watching your channel recently inspired me to create my own! I am using a $20 hobby vise from Harbor Freight. There is a tool that works better, but I have not tried to build one yet. This post is old and I doubt that he still sells these, but he does show how to build them: www.allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=10069&p=458914&hilit=Camillus+knife+vise#p458914 You should join AAPK, if you are not already a member. Great people, and I learn so much there.

[@theknifedoctor]

@@southernknifehobbyist thank you!! What is AAPK?

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@theknifedoctor, a knife forum, AllAboutPocketKnives.com AAPK for short. LOTS of old knife catalogs and other research help, tons of pictures, tutorials, knives for sale, and a lot of folks who just like knives. We maintain a positive and encouraging atmosphere there for the most part, with nothing that you would have to hide from your kids. My handle there is "Reverand".

[@Cuttindux]

Both of you guys are my new favorite “go to” channels on KZbin! I have found and have been watching The Knife Doctor since I cleaned up my late uncle’s knives and learned lots of great tricks. Joined AAPK in my new found interest and there, the Reverand pointed me in the right direction, and shortly after discovered this channel. Two great inspirations in one comment section! Absolutely recommend AAPK, Doc! Another great video Reverand!

[@piperkennard1039]

Iv learned something thanks for sharing brother 🤙

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@piperkennard1039 thank you!

[@garrockwaters304]

That deletion makes for a far better knife for this shape of handle. Now the knife can make use of the folds in the handle instead of gripping the other knife back.--very uncomfortable. Reminds me of the Case 6265. The 6165 works.--------------- Thanks for all your good information and methods, I have certainly learned a lot!

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@garrockwaters304 thank you!

[@stephenjeffrey75]

The knife Dr gave you a shout out today. Man, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Great job on that Western. I look forward to catching up on your other videos. God bless!🙏

@@charlestatem3099 Thank you! I have watched his videos for a while now, he seems like a great guy.

[@1947froggy]

What glue to attach bone to the sides of knife? Subbed.

[@southernknifehobbyist]

Sorry for the late reply. I use different glues, but my favorites are Gorilla Glue epoxy, and Gorilla Glue clear glue.

[@1947froggy]

@@southernknifehobbyist thx

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Great info . I can see why the Doctor recommended your channel. Great stuff. ...Oh. channel sticker swap...Please . Be safe out there.

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@2ndchancegeorge thank you George! I just came across your channel 3 days ago, and really enjoyed watching you put those white scales on a SAK!

[@terrancecoard388]

I was hoping to see you here!!

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@2ndchancegeorge I did not know what you meant, and had to Google "channel stickers". So I ordered some yesterday, and ought to have them in a week or two. Thank you, I will be glad to give you some after they arrive!

[@2ndchancegeorge]

@southernknifehobbyist perfect. My mailing address is in my channel description. Keep up the great work.

[@Walkingman.45]

Could you list the type of glue you used? I’m doing a similar refurb this week.

[@southernknifehobbyist]

@@Walkingman.45 I put the broken pieces back together with Super Glue (or an off-brand of it). I glued the handles on with Gorilla Glue Clear, if I remember correctly. I tend to use either: Gorilla Glue original Gorilla Glue Clear Cleat epoxy, various brands. Any of those hold very well, plus I pin the blades on as well. Not only does that double the ability of the handles to stay in place, but the glue seals up the space between the handles and the liners. Send pictures of your knife when you are finished with it!!

[@RogueBlade-w5]

Great job on that sir Just have to ask what kind of bely is on that 1"x30"? thanks I am a new subscriber, great info...

[@southernknifehobbyist]

Thank you! I mostly use a 400-grit, normally by Red Label Abrasives. Occasionally I buy something local if I run out, but have had good luck with them.

[@kevinwilliams563]

That was a pretty nice blade delete restoration project. Very interesting to see your process. Thank You for sharing.
