Huge Antique Knife Restoration

In this video, I restore a very large chef's knife that I got for cheap at a sale. It has a fair bit of rust/ pitting on it, but I decided to give it a new life.

Dude nice restoration on the knife it actually looks just like the one from the 1978 HalloweeN Horror Movie

Thanks for watching!

This appears to be a Lamson & Goodnow which I think was was thought to be the movie knife for years, but based on the handle Shape I'm pretty sure it was actually a Case s102-12.
I have a very similar drop forged large " chef " to this one, though it's a 60's USGI cooks knife my dad gave me. The only real difference is they were contracted to be much thicker at the spine to take more abuse and they are a bit less refined in fit and finish because to save the government some money.

Nice. Now It looks like Michael Myers’s Butcher Knife From Halloween (1978)

[@TheRussianWoodworker]

It's a cool looking knife that's for sure

Great work! That looks exactly like a Dexter 48912. I lucked into a vintage one from the 1950s at an estate sale for $1. It's got the thickest bolster I've ever seen on a kitchen knife and it's 17" from the tip of the blade to the butt end of the handle. Mine only had some spotty rust which I was able to remove with BKF. I subscribed to your channel.
