Restoration of a Very Rusty Knife with a Very Black Handle!
Today I have the third of the four knives that I bought at auction on my desktop.
For this knife, I chose a block of very black stabilized wood!
Recovery process:
Rust was removed from metal by electrolysis. Electrolyte made from soda and water. I set the current to 5-7 Amperes, and left it like that until the morning!
Then I just had to wash off the dark coating.
This knife had a rather unusual handle, and I had to divide a block of wood into four parts.
Then I glued everything together using epoxy glue. After the glue had dried, I processed the handle on a grinding wheel, and then a lot of work with a rasp and a file.
In the end, I cleaned the handle with sandpaper, I used from 240 to 2000 grit. Then covered with Kornauba wax and polished with a felt wheel.
I really liked the result, I hope you do too.
There are many more cool and interesting videos on the channel, I will be grateful if you watch some of them!
Good luck to you all and take care of yourself!
See you next week!
Best regards Max!

Restoration of an Old Lost Knife. Incredible Handle!
Hello guys!🙌
Today I have the second of four old knives that I bought in one lot for restoration.
I named this knife "Bandit's Dagger" as soon as I saw the finished result. These are my associations.

Restoration process:
As usual, I used electrolysis to remove rust. Electrolysis does not affect good metal, but only removes rust.
I wanted to test my new miter saw so much that I completely forgot that this dagger does not require a handle to be divided into two parts, but only a through hole needs to be drilled and the tail of the knife put on.
Then, after a bit of sadness, I found a way out of the situation.
After electrolysis, I cleaned the dagger with a brass brush, and started the final assembly.
I smeared all parts of the handle very well with epoxy glue, and squeezed it with a clamp for 24 hours.
Then he processed the handle on an impromptu grinder, finalized the shape of the handle with a rasp and a file.
Then I used sandpaper from 240 to 2000 grit, and covered with wood finish oil.
I really liked the result, I hope you do too.

Restoration of an Old Hunting Knife! The most Beautiful Handle
Today I have an old hunting knife for restoration.
This is a knife of one of four in the lot that I purchased!
There is one oddity, none of these knives have a handle, although there are pins for mounting!
Restoration process.
I used electrolysis for rust removal, I used a steel plate as an anode, and the knife itself was the cathode!
For the handle I chose a block of stabilized wood (our craftsmen make them of amazing beauty!!!). In this state, the wood is much harder and denser than a regular bar, thus my new handle will be ETERNAL)))!
I also used a special spacer for knife handles (G10, 1 mm).
I assembled everything with epoxy glue, during assembly I lost my nail on the finger of my left hand (do not try to twist something with a screwdriver if this part is in your palm), could not work for two days, and then completed the processing of the handle.
I treated the handle with wood oil, hand polished it with a cotton ribbon, and was amazed by the beauty of the stabilized wood!!!
I really liked the result, I hope you do too.
There are many more cool and interesting videos on the channel, I will be grateful if you watch some of them!

Restoration of a Rusty Adze with an Ancient Pattern! What do the Secret Symbols mean?
I got this adze along with the fire ax that you saw on the channel just recently!
I spent a lot of time trying to figure out the meanings of the symbols. But I only found that similar symbols are also found on "gypsy axes".
Recovery process:
First of all, I cleaned the adze of rust with a brass soft brush.
I then used the electrolysis process to more thoroughly remove the rust.
I decided to make the handle completely on my own, because now I have very cool planes (this is a gift from my viewer). The planing process is very addictive, and I lowered the first handle into shavings)))
Next, I burned the Handle properly. This is another way to protect the wood from rotting and it also gives the wood a very cool look!
At the end, I treated it with linseed oil in several layers. The first two layers were absorbed in a few seconds!
I liked the final version, although I do not see the practical application of this tool in the modern world!
There are also many more interesting videos on the channel, including about the Viking ax and the big blacksmith's hammer.
Good luck everyone and take care of yourself!
Sincerely, Max.

Witch Knife Restoration?! I think I'm a little afraid of it.
This knife has a pretty creepy story!
This knife was found in the attic of an old house where a 90 year old woman used to live! The relatives of this woman had never seen this knife before, and saw it for the first time only after her death.
Restoration process.
With great difficulty I removed the blade of the knife from its old handle.
I used electrolysis to remove rust. But this time, I chose an iron plate as an anode, and not a stainless steel pipe, as I did earlier. The fact is that using stainless steel during electrolysis, harmful impurities are released into the air and into the water (So my viewers told me).
The handle of this knife is made from the horn of an animal (I still don’t understand which one, if you know please write me about it in the comments).
To clean this horn, I used three types of sandpaper, and then treated the horn with special oil.
After completely cleaning the knife and handle, I assembled everything and fastened it with epoxy glue.
I really liked the result, I hope you like it too)
There are many more cool and interesting videos on the channel, I will be grateful if you watch some of them!
Good luck to you all and take care of yourself!
See you next week!
Best regards Max!

Russian Empire Fire Axe Restoration. 1916 Antique.
Hello everyone!🙌
In this video, I am restoring an old fireman's axe. It was this form of axes that Günther published in his catalog of fire products in 1911.
Unfortunately, the seller only had an ax head. The handle and plates for attaching the head to the handle were destroyed by time (or simply lost). Therefore, I had to make them myself using old drawings and diagrams.
Axes of this type do not use a wedge to hold the head on the handle, because in extreme conditions (for example, in a fire), it was vital to have a strong and reliable tool. And for this, the ax head was fastened using two slats on the sides of the handle. And these strips were already screwed either with screws or self-tapping screws to the handle.
Restoration process.
To clean the ax from rust, I used electrolysis. Thus, the rust is separated from the whole metal. And no physical damage is done to the relic.
The handle was finished with wax oil. I'm not sure if any handle treatments were used in the old days, but since this ax will never be used for its original purpose, I decided to treat the handle with this oil.
I really liked the final result, and I hope you like it too (your likes are the best reward for me❤)
There are also many more interesting videos on the channel, including about the Viking ax and the big blacksmith's hammer.
Good luck everyone and take care of yourself!
Sincerely, Max.

Under the Rust: The Beauty of a Blacksmith Hammer. Restoration.
Hello everyone!🙌
Today I have a big old hammer for restoration! This hammer was found during excavations. On this territory, more than 300 years ago, there was a large settlement of the Slavs. The hammer was severely deformed on both sides, we assumed that these were deformations from strong impacts on the anvil.
Restoration process.
This time I used electrolysis to remove rust. Thoroughly cleaned the metal for good contact with the wire.
I connected the second wire to a piece of stainless steel pipe. Used a car battery charger.
Instead of stainless metal, you can use any other metal part, but it is much more efficient to use a pipe, since the impact on the object comes from all sides.
After 6 hours of electrolysis, I only needed to wash the hammer from black plaque.
I used an ordinary handle from the market, but I corrected it a little for more convenient use.
I am very pleased with the result, and I hope you enjoy this video too (your likes are the best reward for me❤)

A Unique Petrol Lighter Restored from World War II
Restoration of a unique lighter. Today I am restoring a special lighter from the Second World War. It was created by a Russian soldier, from improvised means, during the siege of Leningrad, which lasted 872 days.
It was a very difficult time. The main food for people was bread. The daily norm for workers is 250 grams, for other residents 125 grams!!!(☹) When the grain supply ran out, sawdust was added to the flour to add volume, and then paper.
I don't think we can now imagine what life was like in the besieged city.
The relatives of this soldier gave me this lighter for restoration.
I did not betray her modern gloss, I tried to keep all the old patina. Even the flint wheel worked, so I kept that as well.
I really liked the result of my work, and I hope you do too!
Please subscribe to see more cool projects. I post videos every week!

THE RESTORATION WRENCH FROM WW2. EXTREMELY RARE ADJUSTABLE WRENCH
Greetings my dear viewer!
This wrench was found at the sites of the great battles for Stalingrad!
RECOVERY PROCESS
I was curious to find any marks on this wrench! So I started with a very soft brush! But 100 years underground gave such a result. Only thick metal survived. Even the handle is completely rotted.
It was found really buried in the ground, in a deep rut, with the help of a metal detector.
My friend gave it to me without hope of recovery, as it was a solid ingot of rust!
I kept the adjustable wrench in a special acid for more than a day to remove the rust a little. After numerous attempts, the handle moved a little. Then it got a little easier. I sanded the entire surface, removed deep shells from corrosion with a welding machine and sanded.
I ordered a new handle, made a drawing and sent it to a familiar metal specialist! It turned out great in my opinion!
Throughout the restoration, I kept thinking about what this key would tell me if it could. In what battles did its owner participate, what did he feel, what did he think about. What terrible events he saw, what terrible actions he did not of his own free will, but only following someone's order.
I feel so lucky to be able to touch our history and, of course, give new life to this rare wrench from World War II.
WAR IS BIG PAIN FOR THE WHOLE WORLD!
The longer past events remain in memory, the greater the likelihood that they will not be repeated again. You must remember your history and not repeat the mistakes of our previous generations!

Restoration Rusty old Hand SAW. Also a small modification.
I received this hand saw in a package. The sender was a kind old man. In the letter, he wrote that the old string was almost broken, and very soon it would snap him on the nose.
I decided to use modern technology. Ratchet reel and rope pulleys.
Did I succeed? Watch in the video...
P.S. Don't take the video as a recovery guide. Watch this as an entertaining video😉😉😉😉
Hello everyone! I'm Max, and I really like to disassemble and repair something. So, on this channel I will publish a video where I restore something old and broken. Happy viewing!!! Thank you!

Restoration Viking Axe. I was VERY SURPRISED when I cleaned it from the rust!
About this axe.
This ax was found in the forest many years ago. Then he lay under my feet for many years in my workshop. And quite recently, I took it in my hands and examined it more closely ... It turned out to be not an ordinary ax.
RECOVERY PROCESS.
The first thing I did was brush it with a soft brass brush, hoping to find some factory marks.
Not finding a stamp, I took the grinder and aligned the top and bottom edges.
After that, I found two cracks on it (in fact, they were not cracks). As it turned out already in the process of restoration, the ax was made of DAMASS STEEL!
I am VERY happy with this recovery video and I VERY HOPE you will like it too!
By the way, the channel has already released a new COOL video with the restoration of the WEHRMAHT TANK KEY https://youtu.be/-tf3rBS0wuE 👍👍👍

Bread Slicer Complete Restoration.
I got this bread slicer from my friend. He gave it to me for free, because he had already cut his fingers many times, and now he only buys sliced bread😁.
The bread slicer was in good condition, but required cosmetic repairs.
In the process of parsing the bread slicer, I had a little trouble and had to use a welding machine.
I also repainted the body of the bread slicer twice, since the first paint did not lay down beautifully.
At the very end of the video I make a bread slicer test, bon appetit everyone😋.

Restoration Hand Grinder. Full Recovery!!!
Hey!
My grandfather used this grinder! He used it to sand down the boards and then cut the pictures into the boards with special knives!
But one day the grinder just broke down. And was forgotten for more than 30 years in the farthest corner of the garage!
And finally the day came when I had the opportunity to repair it. I think grandfather would be pleased with the result! It is a pity that he will not be able to evaluate the result.

Old Mechanical Calculator INCREDIBLE Restoration! Jewelry work!
In this video, I am restoring an old mechanical calculator. One section was jammed many years ago, and the former owner did not know what to do with it, and sold it to me at a very low price!
The breakage was not difficult, but it was difficult to get to it. After all, it is full of small screws and springs!
Did I manage ...? Watch this video.
