Fresh out of high school, many years ago, I worked in a footwear factory that had rubber mills in the basement that milled raw rubber bales into sheets of usable rubber. This is exactly the shape and size of knife that the workers used to cut the rubber sheets as they came off the mill. The narrowness of the blade at the handle was where the sheets were "grabbed" by the knife, and the knife was then drawn toward the user.
The knife isn’t supposed to look like that. The previous owners over-sharpened it until it became a toothpick. It was probably a butcher knife originally.
Yeah professional butcher places have ton of knives like this since they go through them so fast. Carving up meat 8 hours every day means lots of sharpening, and worn out blades
Actually, this is exactly how the knife is supposed to look. It's called a boning knife and it is used to take primal cuts, large bits of the animal with joints and break it down into portion size. The thin profile is for getting around the bone.
It did say oil! And the Tinman says oil me! I also noticed you cut swiss cheese at the end because the blade was swiss cheese 🧀😁 I like the redo on the knife handles always! Another fine job sir! 🔪👍
Reminds me of the Old Hickory brand knives my mom owned. They too were over-used, sharpened “one-too-many” times, but…she wouldn’t trade them for the world! About once a week I’d go to her house and sharpen all of her knives for her. Like me, she couldn’t stand a dull knife…maybe that’s where I get it from…
Have one maybe even a bit longer in length and reminds me of a scimitar. I’ve had it for 40years and it was old and used when I got it. Still use it to this day. Sharp as a razor and a great carver/slicer of large cuts of beef/pork/foul.
Great restoration on this old rusty Knife. That blade was in awful shape. You stepped up and took care of it. Looks really great and the handle is perfect for it. I really enjoy watching your videos. You always do a fantastic job on all your restorations. Have a great Sunday
It an Old Hickory. Probably the butchers knife. It’s just been honed way down over the years. You can get a 5 piece set on Amazon for $50. I have them. Really good knives for the price.
Loads of knives were very similar for many years. I would guess this knife is probably a dexter Russell, you can see at the front of the handle where it originally had a folded metal finger guard on it.
I don't think I would have removed the material from the spine. It completely changed the look of the knife. Granted it may have looked the way it does due to it being sharpened over the years but that's the identity of that particular blade. But regardless you do fantastic job of bringing new life into things others would just get rid of or even forget.
I think it’s possibly a Green River steak knife made in Canada . It’s probably a shop butchers worn down over a few years work. It’s not possible to buy a wooden handled knife here in the UK now.
That's an old salmon processing fish knife! They don't filllet with that kind of knife, they head & gut. Port Mollar Alaska, used to be a cannery 100 years old with steam powered toppers, you can still see this knife in Norway and Alaska.
I also have a knife like that, it has a bone handle and came with a carving set so I think that must be for carving meat, mine is very old, not sure how old but the maker mark is worn off
This is exactly how the knife is supposed to look. It's called a boning knife and it is used to take primal cuts, large bits of the animal with primary joints and break it down into portion size.
Old boning knife that has been ground down ALOT, probably by a company that distributes knives to kitchens. Once they get to a certain point they no longer can safely cut through small bones making the knife unsafe. Looks beautiful tho!!!
that's because Its been sharpend so many times. when I worked on the fishing boats all the little fillet knifes all looked like this just smaller blades
WOW!!!! You’re comedian…..smart with subscribe on any place in shop!!! I think cheese 🧀 lover would buy your gorgeous knife 🔪 It really neat and sharp!!! New style with wood and knife 🔪 as well…..keep it up with your great skills!!!! 👍
I found a knife identical to this metal detecting. Even the handle was the same. I could barely make out any markings on it. It was an old file converted to a knife.
That looks to be an old hickory knife old farmers and settlers used them to slaughter pigs and cattle because they were fairly flexible and held a great edge
Cheese? How about paying respect and halfing a chicken? (-: yeah, I've one of my grandfather's old five pin J. Russell & Co./Green River Works boner/skinner knives and we love it. (5.5" blade) ~ Resharpened so many times Green River Works is near gone.
Every insulator on every construction site has a knife in his sheath that looks just like this one. It's constantly sharpened to make clean smooth cuts through fiberglass and foam insulation. End of Line
I've seen many knives like that! They've just been sharpened into oblivion over their lifetimes!
Cool
Саме так, він зношений від багатьох заточувань
Came here for this comment
True.
Shorten it up to about a 4” blade and the make a nice boning knife if you process your own animals.

Yup
Got it it one we had a knife like that it was 40 years old . The shape varies depending on who sharpened it
It is an old knife made to cut thin slices of ham out of a pork leg. We have those in Spain. It is not a cheese knife.

Great job! And Yes your oilcan did say "Oil" LOL!
verdade, grande trabalho!
Beautiful restoration mister
I'm a retired german butcher and I would say it is a often used butcher-knife of the decade with wooden handles. Best wishes from Germany
Was going to say my grandfather slaughtered pigs with a knife similar to this
I got a dexter russel butcher knife carry it with me when I’m mountain man style hunting
@@twodogshawkeye9968 Great to hear from you. I love your name.
Fantastic job 👍 I like how you hid the pins in the handle and the interesting pattern on the blade. Great work
Very elegant touch the matte on the Blade did with the Sandblaster 🙂👍.
Thank you for sharing your time and sharing this video
Interesting piece of work on this old knife. However it was very nicely done. 😁👍🇺🇸
That wave feature you added to the blade via sandblasting was a nice touch!
That turned out so cool! A lot of character I'm glad you kept it. Cheers
Keep up the amazing work I love your videos they're great
Great video Lost & Restored!
Damn, that came out so nice. I love it.
That is one of my favorite types of mechanical pencils and just seeing it used gives me good feelings lol. I can feel how well it writes
Excelente 👏👏👏👏🇧🇷
verdade!
Typical knife from south Spain to Alice ham. Its called jamonera
Do you have a link for the sanding attachments you used on your angle grinder? If love to get ahold of some for myself
....lookin' great. good work, keep well..
Excelente 👏
Great job 👏 👍
favorite restoration channel! love it!
Wow, that's awesome to hear!
Nice job bro👍👍
Exceptional job 👌👏
A talking oil can!! You can make millions! Nice restoration, thank you.

Nice Job good Rested
Great job 👍 Congratulations from Belgium Europe 😉🇧🇪.
My old Nanna used to have a knife like that. It has acquired that shape from extensive sharpening
Had a knife that looked just like that one. I always thought it was just ancient and had been sharpened into that shape. Still worked fine!
Have one maybe even a bit longer in length and reminds me of a scimitar. I’ve had it for 40years and it was old and used when I got it. Still use it to this day. Sharp as a razor and a great carver/slicer of large cuts of beef/pork/foul.

I really enjoy watching your videos.
You always do a fantastic job on all your restorations.
Have a great Sunday
Lmao OIL
Ive got an old hickory looks just like that ... Takes and holds a nice edge
Looks great and a wonderful job restoring it!!
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up for support
Keep supporting
It looks like an Old Hickory kitchen knife that has been sharpened many times, but it is a beautiful restoration.
Your oil can reminds me of the Tin Man, quietly saying "OIL" lol
What a perfect knife for the cheese slicing, beautifully restored.
It an Old Hickory. Probably the butchers knife. It’s just been honed way down over the years. You can get a 5 piece set on Amazon for $50. I have them. Really good knives for the price.

I would guess this knife is probably a dexter Russell, you can see at the front of the handle where it originally had a folded metal finger guard on it.
It's a filtering knife. Used for cutting thin slices of steak. A good knife. Good job on the restoration bro
i enjoy watching your video..getting some ideas.
Wouldn't surprise me if it is an old butchers knife and the profile is from decades of sharpening.
I don't think I would have removed the material from the spine. It completely changed the look of the knife. Granted it may have looked the way it does due to it being sharpened over the years but that's the identity of that particular blade.

Genial 👍👍👍
I think it’s possibly a Green River steak knife made in Canada . It’s probably a shop butchers worn down over a few years work. It’s not possible to buy a wooden handled knife here in the UK now.
Turning a knife from Swiss cheese to a cheese knife... Brilliant!
I think that's just a knife that been over sharpened over time
You're probably right
That's an old salmon processing fish knife! They don't filllet with that kind of knife, they head & gut. Port Mollar Alaska, used to be a cannery 100 years old with steam powered toppers, you can still see this knife in Norway and Alaska.
You'll see a lot of butchers knives like that. Worn down from constant sharpening.
I also have a knife like that, it has a bone handle and came with a carving set so I think that must be for carving meat, mine is very old, not sure how old but the maker mark is worn off
Was that swiss cheese at the end? Clever. I see what you did there.
This is exactly how the knife is supposed to look. It's called a boning knife and it is used to take primal cuts, large bits of the animal with primary joints and break it down into portion size.
Those are commom in commercial kithens that utilize a sharpening service that uses power sharpening equipment.
Гарна праця !!!
It really says “oil”!! :D
Old boning knife that has been ground down ALOT, probably by a company that distributes knives to kitchens. Once they get to a certain point they no longer can safely cut through small bones making the knife unsafe. Looks beautiful tho!!!
that's because Its been sharpend so many times. when I worked on the fishing boats all the little fillet knifes all looked like this just smaller blades
Reminds me of a knife my grandfather butchered pigs with..used once a year and was only used for that purpose
I have a knife with a blade that shape but only about 4” long. If you find out what it’s for, lmk. It’s not a filet knife because it’s not flexible.
It might be way over sharpened from years of abuse.
@@lostandrestored
Mine came in a chef knives kit.
WOW!!!!
You’re comedian…..smart with subscribe on any place in shop!!!
I think cheese 🧀 lover would buy your gorgeous knife 🔪
It really neat and sharp!!! New style with wood and knife 🔪 as well…..keep it up with your great skills!!!!
👍
I found a knife identical to this metal detecting. Even the handle was the same. I could barely make out any markings on it. It was an old file converted to a knife.
I see a guy in our seafood department using a knife like that. My son loves when the sandblaster comes out.
That looks to be an old hickory knife old farmers and settlers used them to slaughter pigs and cattle because they were fairly flexible and held a great edge
Setting aside the obvious (it's worn down from numerous sharpenings)...I think this is a (very old) boning knife. Nice restoration.
your amazing
Butchers knife. Used maybe for ribs.
Would really love to see some old Italian stilettos repaired
It's a filleting knife..... It's specifically designed for cutting fish and removing bones or cutting skin from the meat.
Worn out butchers knife, may sold in the early 60's at the docks in New England for 50 cents each. They make great fish cleaning and filet knifes.
Should be an ideal knife for cleaning and filleting fish now.
Like garantido
Muito linda
Could it be an old boning knife for removing meat from a half carcase ?
Cheese? How about paying respect and halfing a chicken? (-:
yeah, I've one of my grandfather's old five pin J. Russell & Co./Green River Works boner/skinner knives and we love it. (5.5" blade)

The rest of the knife... atoms in a fish processing establishment!
Fish filleting knife perhaps?
what a strange knife. i agree. i don't know what that blade shape could really be practical for
It was an old slicing knife for cooked proteins. It used to be pretty straight but was honed excessively for many years. That's how it got so curvy.
Now I want cheese 🧀
i have seen letter openers similar to this though i think this is a knife
Boy, that is one worn blade. That’s the type I look for, to use when I go to a black powder rendezvous.
Scales looks to be regular pine to me
amazing results as usual, that is a meat knife
I would have deepened the coloring of the handle to a darker tone ,than the light tone, and sharpened the blade properly, not with that wavy pattern.
Nice, but that handle will never stay on, soak it in dishwater a couple times and off it comes.
It's a fish fillet and boning knife. I have one.
Looks like fish filleting knife. The blade is supposed to be narrow and flex to follow the contour of the fish skeleton.
Great for fileting a fish, well done.
Your oil can... 🤣
It was an old homemade butchers knife that was used for many many years
Looks like an antique boneing knife used by butchers from the blade profile it was sharpened alot
My Grandfather used a homemade knife to slaughter pigs. It is one of the things I cherish most
It looks like an over-sharpened boning knife.
I have one just like it I found in a wall
looks like a old boning knife thats been sharpened a lot in its prime
It looks like a well worn butchers knife or some other associated trade like what a slaughterman would use.
I have one ... I use it to carve Beef ... Takes and edge easily
Flea market find?
