Nice seeing old knives getting a new lease on life and getting returned to service. I also enjoy finding a treasure and giving it back what time took away… Thanks for the video!! The Old Army Scout…
A knife professional tip from me... At the inside of the sharpened edge is called the ricasso of the knife blade before the bolster, the part that angles down is called the tick. grind it down a little at a time till your blades that have your new sharpened tips that are sticking out of the knife body goes down inside the handle into the liners. The tick there is what keeps the knife edges from hitting the spring bars.
Hey Brother. Thanks for sharing these oldies. Dig that Cardinal Red on that Boker’ and Ulster!!! Never seen an Ulster’ with scales like that! I like your approach to cleaning up those old slips👍
You use that funny little blade in the wood handle electricians knife to open up the outer rubber sheathing of cable. The little nipple goes in the end of say number 14 cable you push the flat edge/blade along the cable and the blade cuts through the rubber sheathing exposing the 3 inner wires. I don’t know the name for that blade.
Nice job of saving some older knives that still have a lot of use left in them. Do peoe think our fathers and grandfathers just threw away perfectly good knives because they broke the tip or the main blade got pretty worn? Nope, they fixed them and used them for years more. Look at pocket knives from the 1930s and 40s, the best years of production. The blades are worn on some cases to a sliver. They got a 100% of use out of them.
Thank you John and your absolutely right! I have had the red Boker in my pocket every day since I cleaned it up and enjoyed using it. It works just fine, even starts up a good conversation when someone sees it.
The only downside is the old knives tend to clean up too easily. You fund one you like and get all excited to clean and/or fix it and you get it all squared away within an hour or so and then what do you do? You either have to go do some real chores or go find another knife to fix, and I hate doing chores.
@@johnelder4273 lol very true! I find myself looking for project knives to fill my down time with. I started fixing sheaths as well. There are some great how to videos on stitching leather.
Now you’re Talking my language 👍Cool finds Brother! Nice save a love shown on that Cardinal Red Boker! Love Ulster’ Cutlery. Never seen a double lock electrician before. Subbed the channel
That’s some cool stuff brother!!! That little red Boker is sweet and still has tons of life and use left in it! As far as those Klein go, I’m gonna have to add one of those! I love old knives like that , that have been used and have a story to tell! It makes you wonder how and why a feller used them . True story: I walked a railroad track out in the boonies where they had replaced some cross ties and picked up a 5 gallon bucket of spikes to do just that with! That 5 gallon bucket of spikes is still aging well in my barn!😂 Great video! Have an awesome and blessed Sunday Brother!!!👊🏻😁
Great seeing someone talking about knives and not Crying about one that they had an issue with.Nice knives.👍👏
Thank you brother

Thank you very much! I’ve had that old red Boker in my pocket for a week now, works pretty good and brings a good bit of joy every time I use it.
This is a good idea for display. Old pocket knives are neat. I have a few.

Don't take the tick down to much to not be able to use the nail nick!!

@@CuttingEdgetools thanks Dwayne, I really like carrying the Cardinal Boker. I would like to find one in better shape! Much appreciated
Some very interesting finds. They're looking good now!👍🏻
Thank you Ted, much appreciated
I think that weird looking tip is a stitch ripper, for undoing sewing in fabric faster.
@@Kangsteri it would definitely work for that, thank you

@@Pocket_EDC the spike knife is awesome, always wanted to make one. The Kline was a good find for sure!
Neat stuff 👌 That Boker is a Whittler 😊
Thank you Michael, I thought it might be but wasn’t sure.

@@ssechres 👍🏼thank you
@ Kein Problem! Thank you for your knife videos.
@ thank you for watching, very much appreciated
@ My dad taught me some appreciation for pocketknives. He carried a Case Stockman.
@ case knives are my favourite pocket knife for sure. I want to pick up a 75 stockman next. I carry a small Texas Jack most days
I have a boker just like that one
@@billyjohnson2495 awesome! It’s a wonderful knife, your lucky. I don’t think there are many like it anymore.👍🏼👍🏼
5:44 my first thought was oyster opener.
@@bugoobiga that would definitely work!
The "ing" in "solingen" is pronounced more like in "sing" ;)
@@Kleiner_Lutz 👍🏼
Whatever
That’s some cool stuff brother!!! That little red Boker is sweet and still has tons of life and use left in it!
As far as those Klein go, I’m gonna have to add one of those!
