Awesome work, but just a few comments. Thats is a Deba knife, thought for fish processing. You flat grinded the urasuki. The handle is supposed to be set by burning it into the handle hole and there must be a separation between the bottom part of the blade and the upper surface of the handle that makes sharpening, cleaning and removing nasty bits that can get caught there much more easier. Cheers!
I bet this whole project started because Mr. Gear found those two little bits of epoxy and wondered what he could make with only that much... Great result!!
Did you know that the flat side of a deba is not really flat? It is slightly concave to reduce drag on what you are cutting. You have made it more or less flat, ruining this aspect of the knife.
Deba is traditionally a fish knife. You don't need epoxy for the handle. Make the hole a little smaller than the tang and torch the tang red hot while holding the blade in the vise. Tap the handle slowly on and it will burn and seat itself very nicely. Make sure not to heat the blade, too.
That is a method of seating a tang, but largely a historical one. Japanese knives tend to have replaceable handles, but the burn on method is not ideal. The soot on the interior of the handle can oft act as lubrication, and will often leave an unsightly and bigger hole at the opening of the tang slot. Epoxy is typically a better standard to go by. And if you want a new handle you can still replace it easily by breaking it off. Not talking out of my ass, bladesmith with 5 years of experience here, and so far no complaints on handle design. Let the man do his thing. It's not perfect but he's going out and fixing good work.
Fantastic video and excellent craftsmanship. I do have a question, on one side it seemed flat with a bevel and the other side of the blade was concave . It looks like you ground it flat on both sides. Another restoration video I recently viewed showed that the concave side was there for a reason: to help with slicing more efficiently and reducing food sticking to the blade. Is having 1 concave side common on all Japanese knives or just certain styles? Thanks 👍
That was, and still is a good single bevel knife. A substantial blade, not a thin, flimsy machine stamping. Hand made by a HUMAN with a hammer and a hearth, not a machine stamping it from a sheet of steel. Despite the rust, the point is intact and there seem to be no chips from the cutting edge. Look at the thickness of the back of that blade. The shape of the tang still shows the work of the one who forged this blade. It is possible that he is long gone and your restoration of his work honors his craftmanship. He might have chosen other methods for the restoration but towards the end you employed methods that he would have recognized. I have quite an arsenal of single bevel knives and while I am not Japanese, I would not trade them for any price. Well done.
Can you please tell me where you got the heavy duty welders magnet and the two handles from ********** such a great idea in how you used them when sanding the knife bro.
@@robertp457 it seems you change the whole functionality now. Is not bad, just very different in work with. Anyhow, is way better than stay and lost in rust.
I use this exact style knife. Found it at a garage sale for $2 many years ago. Must be spring steel quality as it holds an edge forever. I always use a maple cutting block.
Unfortunately you removed the hollow grind that this single bevel japanese knives have for a specific reason by sanding it on a flat surface. It would have been better to lock the knife and hand sand it with sand paper wrapped around a rounded element.
Great job on this one... I honestly am surprised you got it that good... That was a mess when you started..... Maybe your next restoration should be a band saw??? Would have come in handy.....
That's actually a really nice Deba. Should have broken down a salmon or cracked a few lobsters to really show the effectiveness of it after the resto. Looks great.

THANK YOU so much: I knew something was wrong with that "design editing", now I know what was it, and why.

I was kinda sad seeing that. The concave also helps with sharpening it means the flat side can always meet the other edge
Is it just me, or are all of these restoration videos highly addictive?
Fantastic work using very basic tools. Great result.
Thousands of knife making/restoring videos out there. This is a good one.
I'm glad to hear that, thank you!

That long and thick handle will be a pain in the ass when filleting a fish, which this knife was meant for and not for anymore.
@@karasunoendou That's not true at all.
Awesome job loved the magnet and sandpaper trick.
ここまで錆びた包丁を手入れして鏡面に仕上げた上で凄まじい切れ味にしたのは凄い。だけれども、裏を潰すようにヤスリがけしてしまったせいで裏すきが無くなってしまってるように見える。これでは和包丁としての機能性と特徴はなくなってしまう。それが少しだけ残念である。
Very top restoration 👍👍👍

Enjoyed the video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
I really liked how you made the handle
Excellent 👍👍👍. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for visiting
I'm not keen of polished knifes, but this turned out damn nice and the level of dedication regarding grinding is next level! 😉

Good job mate
Clever idea for the water bottle
Nice bro
Like the trick using a magnet & a sandpaper plus the water bottle with a great result ...👏💥
Nice job.
Woow😯.. amazing👍👍👏👏
Thank you!
Brilliant job well done from UK
Thank you so much!

Good job....
It's been a long time since you restore a non-mechanical tool! Well done!
Talk about an arm workout for all that sanding! That's a pretty neat magnet tool too!
It is a Fitup magnet for holding structural steel and pipe in place for Welding.
Great use of Handles. He could polish and sharpen a Rock!
@@gordbaker896 I love a good new use for a tool! Might have to try one of these myself for a future restoration video!
Can you please tell me where you got the heavy duty welders magnet and the two handles from ********** such a great idea in how you used them when sanding the knife bro.
Ottimo lavoro fratello 👍 👍 👍
Grazie Fratello!
japanese steel knives are the best
On the left side remain a bit holow or is flattened totally?
It’s flat as you can see from the sanding on a flat table.

Nice
Thanks
It is just perfect and again perfect.very nice job
Well you did that the hard way! 😂 but it made it that much more worth it. 👍🏻👍🏻
That deba is beautiful
My favourite bit was when you were rubbing the knife on the sandpaper.
🤣🤣🤣
Well done, Sir! I like handmade things...only a Beltdrinder is to easy...you take your hands and your time...very good!
Thank you very much!
Nicely done

sa from turkey
Thank you!
What did you use after Wire brush cleaning @ 1:40
Vinegar, I think.
@memories you're right, it is banana vinegar.
For polishing you need to use lower rm.. not angle grinder but drill.. or angle grinder with adjustable rpm
I see, thank you so much for sharing!
@@gear_show i enjoy your videos very much and i am happy if i can help you in any way do it faster or better...
I never seen banana vinegar in my life..thanks for the extra education today
日本の伝統的な出刃包丁、海外の方が修理して使ってくれて嬉しい限りです。
日本の包丁は刃の背中部分に錆をつけて作られます。
黒錆というものがつくとそれ以上に錆が進行しなくなります。
紅茶などで黒錆を作ることができるそうなので試してみてはいかがでしょうか？

Show us how that is done.............
I have same opinion as yours.
"Uraoshi" is important for this type's Japanese cooking knife.
Fabulous restoration, specially sanding it ,So tedious process it was
You’ve got me rethinking the entire way I hand sand blades my man.
❤️❤️ excellent
Thank you!
Awesome finished looks as new !!!
Good idea
Excelente restauración de este cuchillo japones, respetos desde Venezuela💯🤜🔥🤛🙏💯💯💯
Very good job 👍
For rust use pool acid (muriatic acid) diluted into water, 1-3hrs all rust will be gone. You only need a small amount of acid.
Okay, thank you so much for the tips.
Awesome job - love the finish! It's a long slog doing all that sanding by hand, bravo!
Sweet 👍🏼👍🏼
Very nice job well done.
Just perfect, as always
Thanks again!
Hi man. Why don’t you used sandblaster to remove rust from the knife?
I want to show the simple way to restore it. Anyway thank you!
Is that Banana Vinegar? That is my first time to see such a thing. Vinegar works so well to remove rust!
Отличная работа!!! Лайк
All this hand work in honor of the people who originally made the knife probably using the same methods. Fine work!
Don't you think these knives were made at a factory using industrial methods?
8:30 beautyful landscape painted by the nature.
Wow, I didn't notice that until you mentioned it. This is one of those patterns that can be viewed in two different ways.
Красивая работа и красивый результат!
Благодарю вас!
The hand sanding alone...dang. You put the work in on this one. Nice job.
What was the solution you used to soak the blade at time -19:10 ?
You flattened the urasuki. Did you do a little survey on Deba knives?
Turned out fantastic!! Well done and thanks for the video!!
Great job on this one... I honestly am surprised you got it that good... That was a mess when you started.....
Maybe your next restoration should be a band saw??? Would have come in handy.....
I enjoyed the wonderful and beautiful video! i subscribe to you
This is the video about How to remove rust on the knife I've ever seen 😵👍
Trabalhoso porém um excelente resultado!
Sim, é
Lots of respect for the hand sanding, super great work man.👍🏽
Where do knife making people find that size brass tubing for the handle?
Just grinded the curve of the knife, that curve is to avoid food sticking to the blade, but hey, nice restoration after all.
Love it nice job
Thank you for this dope video. Huge fan of your work 🙏
Красивая работа🎉
Appreciate your hard work. You gave new life. 👍
Tökéletes munka, gratulálok-...

Thanks for the visit
Nice work man , but I have chenged the geometri of the knife
Elinize sağlık çok güzel oldu👍
What was the liquid you soaked the knife in in the beginning
It is banana vinegar
left side should be concave (and it was), not flat
Exactly, he just ruined that Deba knife....
Woww 👍 👍
Its about time!
What was that liquid, banana juice?
Why not just use a sander?
That time I didn't have sandblaster yet
That's actually a really nice Deba. Should have broken down a salmon or cracked a few lobsters to really show the effectiveness of it after the resto. Looks great.
sunflower oil or vinegar?
I've heard of bearded axes, but that knife literally had a beard!
Yes, it has.
Is there no need to harden the knife edge ??
Like heating it and putting it in oil as someother youtubers do??
