I am quite positive, the soldier who once owned that, couldn’t even conceive over one hundred years later, someone would be restoring his knife, and people from around the world could watch on their hand held phones or computers… you are truly an artist and a craftsman. Thank you
Odd how sections of the unrestored knife have bright shining untarnished metal. Looks like he attached the knife to a string and half-submerged it in a tank of water for a few months
The "I used to be a dentist" comment was perfectly timed, as that is exactly what I was thinking! People don't realize that a good dentist is also a skilled craftsman. Fantastic restoration as always!
Yes, my current dentist always comments how beautiful all my gold crowns are, done by my old dentist (whose practice he took over after my old dentist retired).
Obscuring the sparks from the welding torch was such a nice act, I’m watching this at night so I appreciate it! Thank you for bringing back to life such a precious piece of history from my country!
The camera already filters out the bad light from our eyes, I personally like watching welding because it's the one chance to really see something that usually can't be seen. But to each their own
As I get older, I find that it gets harder to find these beautiful items from the past. You brought it back to life and its incredible beauty put a smile on my face! Great work as always!
@@francissobotka8725 You're probably correct. The knife in the video looks nothing at all like authentic "arditi trench daggers" that show up on Google. The handle and blade profile are totally different.
another amazing restoration. This knife came from the Piemonte Region, capital of Turin, Northern Italy, my grandfather was born there. I remembered a lot about my grandfather, he was there, he only came to Brazil after the war ended. Thank you very much, to you, who with all affection restored and to whom you sent. Hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷🙋❤️
@@paulnewman3406 I am concerned that a 12 million view video, makes it financially worthwhile dipping an antique in acid and burying it in the garden for 6 months! The corrosion is WRONG, too uniform. Brass tends to de-zinc-ify over time becoming copper coloured, and steel pitts and edges are eaten away fast. That said it may be a modern repro, given the abuse and subsequent 'resto' there would be no patina after anyway. Just sad
What's very good about being a dentist, surgeon is that your hand is very steady, and that's very important while doing restorations, and stuff, especially for miniature things and writings or engravings. Awesome thing to have.
C'è poco da essere fieri, gli Arditi erano praticamente degli assassini che seminavano il panico fra le truppe austriache, intraprendendo azioni pericolose, sì, ma abbastanza inutili ai fini della guerra. E non è un caso se dopo la guerra divennero tutti fascisti.
I’m from New Zealand and all I could think of is “this dagger was held by someone braver than we can comprehend this day and age” I admire their courage also and everyone else who gave their lives for us. ✌️🇳🇿
All I can say is outstanding . From start to finish . The satisfaction you get from this must be immense and you deserve every ounce of praise you get for your work .
It's fantastic work. So you were a dentist. I used to work for a retired forensic orthodontist typing up all of his cases. My husband tidied up his library, put it all in order, and I did his typing, coffee making and meals. He has no family, just himself. My kids and grandkids loved him.
Нет сомнения, что Вы можете вернуть к жизни вещь в любой стадии «убитости»... Руки у Вас золотые! Но ещё больше меня восхищает то, как аккуратно Вы все делаете! Я уже, по-моему, писала, что никогда раньше ни у кого не видела такой чистой мастерской! А инструменты, с которыми Вы работаете, выглядят словно только что из магазина! Видно, что Вы за ними заботливо ухаживаете! Вы заслуживаете всяческих похвал и уважения! Лайк! 👍🏻
to be fair, that can't hurt our eyes, at all. In person, yes, it puts off an obscene amount of light that can damage your eyesight.... but the brightness from your monitor is only as high as your monitor is capible of showing, so like 1000 nit peak brightness for example. an arc flash is like 13.2 million lux, which is more or less interchangable with nits. so it's magnitudes brighter, but your monitor isn't capable of displaying 13.2 million nits so your eyes are in zero danger, though if you're watching in a pitch black room, and all of a sudden it goes all the way to peak brightness, it's uncomfortable lol.
Le trincee del fronte italiano durante la prima guerra mondiale erano molto strette perciò durante gli assalti era difficile usare la baionetta innestata sul fucile (che era troppo lungo) per questo gli Arditi preferivano usare un pugnale corto e la piccola mitragliatrice "Villar Perosa"
@@raimondonocco6623 TRANSLATION: The trenches of the Italian front during the First World War were very narrow so during the assaults it was difficult to use the bayonet attached to the rifle (which was too long) for this reason the Arditi preferred to use a short dagger and the small "Villar Perosa" machine gun
Arditi daggers were made out of bayonets though, most of them anyway. It's not unthinkable that some of them used different daggers, but the one in the video is definitely not the iconic dagger used by the Arditi.
Here in Italy during WWI, they had shortened the sabers by creating these daggers, used by the "Arditi" (great-grandparents of the current Incursori), they jumped the trench to engage in the hand-to-hand duel, they were trained in the use of this white weapon, they did not fear death , they faced fear with courage in honor of the homeland, for this reason they were so feared, their purpose of victory and honor, was all in sinking this dagger into the flesh of the enemy, therefore friend in your hands you have a piece of history that surely has killed many enemies, currently the current raiders of the Italian Navy and Army possess such sidearms, however the dagger is also supplied to other non-special corps.
como duda, al recortar una bayoneta que medìa como 50 cm de hoja, debieron reconstruirle la " canaleta " que no llega a la punta de la misma. . . y quizas modificar uno de los dos gavilanes.
sometimes when i see this videos i see some people weathered the object to be restored on pupose just to get views so i cant certainly trust and enjoy the videos of restorations anymore. but i used to watch like a lot of them
I wish UA-cam restoration videos at the end showed how many hours went into each project. Amazing to see how much work and love these restorations receive!
right!!! like at the end would specify how many hours it took to do certain parts of it . and all total hours at the end . for example "the handle of this knife took ($$) amount of hours and ($#) many hours for the whole thing . " and I'm pretty sure alot of the people seeing that it took a certain amount of hour it would surprise them a hell of a lot . and maybe possibly make the viewers want to donate towards it .. so yea very good idea.
I gotta say, these videos are some next level kind of relaxing. They almost induce me in some sort of trance. Every. Single. Time. They take the stress away really :)
i found recently nintendo console, completely covered wuth rust, probably from XII th century, but in surprisingly good shape. I am going to do a restoration video about it!
I’m Italian. The name “Arditi” means “Brave”. They were really brave soldiers. However that knife looks like more a National Guard knife, because the trench knife was simpler with a wooden handle (it would have been a shame using that piece in a trench). Anyway…. Thanks for your work in bringing again that beautiful piece to life!! Where did you find it?
I shall try n see additional videos of restoration you post. Where do you find your items for restoring? Are they your items or do people bring them to you to restore?

You, my friend, have talent in droves. Not only are you AMAZING at restoration, but you also do a phenomenal job with your editing, camera angles, and all the little intricate details that make these videos so much fun to watch. I just subscribed to your channel today. Keep up the great work.
Cool knife, but the beer fridges in the workshop are awesome! It’s amazing how being able to see what’s in the fridge increases the “cool” factor big time! 👍
Handle was amazing looking. And I loved the finish of the blade, pitted (which looked fantastic!) and a mirror reflection, perfect contrast! And damn fine work on the repairs.
No my friend, the dumbest thing that exists in humanity today is not respecting other people's opinions. And generally, ignorance and aggressiveness are the refuges of the ignorance.
I let out an audible "wow" when I saw you use a dim circle over the weld, that small touch earned you a subscriber. I can't tell you how many times I have been blinded by welds on yt, thank you for your effort in these videos :)
Masterful work! I so much appreciate the time and care you take with each project to really give the audience a product worth watching and waiting for! Please keep restoring old to new!
Just another amazing restoration. I'm not sure I've ever even missed one of your videos. Occasionally though I do go back and rewatch some of them sometimes they're really fascinating. Thanks for sharing. 😊
What an amazing work! Oh btw thank you for adding the dark opacity circle to reduce the intensity of the light, was watching in a total dark room and it turned so bright lol

You can see the level of diligence in everything he does from the restoration work and at 5:12 by blurring the welding. Check other videos and not everybody does that, it saves your eyes.
Cameras may not pick up on the spectrum that would otherwise be harmful to our eyes, but that doesn't make the bright, bright light any more appealing to look at. It does indeed save your eyes to have it blurred like that, it's unnecessary, anti-aesthetic brightness otherwise. Might not outright blind you or do any lasting harm, but why keep a very bright flash regardless? I watch this shit at night before going to bed, intense lights also have the effect of staving off sleepiness, which I already normally do anyways just by looking at the screen, but I sure don't need MORE light in my eyes haha
I like this type of restoration better then a lot of other channels. Yes the artifacts are cleaned, repaired, and made functional again but you can still see tiny details in it that clearly indicate it’s old. Some other channels go so far in the restoration process that the objects look like they came out of an assembly line yesterday with none of their original soul.
I was thinking to myself he looks like a dentist today with his little hooks and drills. And then right after you said it in the video (text) 😅✌🏻 Bet you wish you had a sandblaster for teeth 😱😄 Awesome dagger, great result as always.

If he once told somebody that his knife will be restored by the craftsman from talking mirror, then he would have been burned at the stake))

Thank you so much 😀 welcome aboard
You are a LEGEND for the welding blind. So many people don’t do that.
thanks a lot for your kind words
Not like it really changes anything. A simple video cannot replicate the infrared rays created by the welding flash
What an amazing piece of history with a gorgeous restoration!
thank you so much Dawn :)
@@AwesomeRestorations You're more than welcome. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent/skill with us.
An absolute Master Jedi of restoration. Just mind blown every time.

If that thing could talk, brought a tear to my eye at the end. Beautiful work.
thank you so much I am glad to hear that :)
Cool knife, but the beer fridges in the workshop are awesome! It’s amazing how being able to see what’s in the fridge increases the “cool” factor big time! 👍
thank you so much I am glad you liked it :) cheers 🍻
@Awesome Restorations Hi! What solution did you soak the dagger in (& for how long) to build up the uniform, dirt-free oxidation?
Это восхитительно! Спасибо за это видео!❤️
thank you so much :)
Handle was amazing looking. And I loved the finish of the blade, pitted (which looked fantastic!) and a mirror reflection, perfect contrast! And damn fine work on the repairs.
thank you so much for your kind words :)
Nice painted rust trick
no trick at all

Man, I love these restoration videos, but you are the first one who shows concern for people's eyes when welding. CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU!!!!!
thank you so much for your kind words :)
It's a video it won't damage your eyes anymore than a video of grass. I'm not trying to be rude just making a comment to your statement.
concern for peoples eyes? That is the dumbest thing i've heard in a long time.
No my friend, the dumbest thing that exists in humanity today is not respecting other people's opinions. And generally, ignorance and aggressiveness are the refuges of the ignorance.
I let out an audible "wow" when I saw you use a dim circle over the weld, that small touch earned you a subscriber. I can't tell you how many times I have been blinded by welds on yt, thank you for your effort in these videos :)
thank you so much for your comment and for watching :)
LMFAOOO
I’ve never understood that… it’s limited by the brightness on your phone l?😂
Masterful work! I so much appreciate the time and care you take with each project to really give the audience a product worth watching and waiting for! Please keep restoring old to new!
Excellent work!
Thank you for sharing this.
I really appreciate that there are craftsmen like yourself who are restoring these relics from WW I.
Thank you very much!
Мастер своего дела!!! Видно на что вкладывает всю душу и любовь к своей работе. Таких мало.😊😊😊 Как то так
many thanks :)
Профессионал, уважение таким людям
This restorer is awesome. Look what he's accomplished. He's reconstructed a beautiful, lethal, true demon-destroying dagger.
Just another amazing restoration. I'm not sure I've ever even missed one of your videos. Occasionally though I do go back and rewatch some of them sometimes they're really fascinating.
Thanks for sharing. 😊
Seems more like a ceremonial knife than a combat one.
Классная работа, спасибо за видео!
Your the best for darkening the welds!
thanks Michael glad you appreciate it :)
The sound and ambient are totally great in this video as well as the work itself 😄
thank you I am glad you think so
Did you add the woodpecker sounds?
Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks
What an amazing work!
Oh btw thank you for adding the dark opacity circle to reduce the intensity of the light, was watching in a total dark room and it turned so bright lol
thank you s omuch Robert :)
Beautiful knife.
It looks like something from hundreds of years ago.
Thanks for watching 👍
Well, it is 😂

Very good . .
Очень люблю ваши видео, так и хочется иметь свою собственную мастерскую что бы давать предметам новое дыхание, очень увлекательно , всегда смотрю вас с восторгом ^_^

NOOOO THE HISTORICAL ARTIFACT
Phenomenal work as always!!!! Keep up the excellent job!!!
thank you so much I really appreciate it 😊
@@AwesomeRestorations you are very welcome
since you're so talented, there would be nice to see a video about the work you've done to make this weapon look old and "rusty" as well
Looks like they dipped the hilt in water and rolled it in powered Draino or some other abrasive detergent.
My father was in the 101st Airborne Division. Interesting seeing the patch on your torch canister!! Awesome @3:00
thanks, glad you liked it :)
My husband was 101st as well around 06-09! Currahee!

Matias Lucena 28 de Agosto de 2022 já ativando o sino aqui do Brasil, eu fico maravilhado com pessoas como o criador deste ótimo canal se prontifica a a trazer de volta a relíquias do passado com muita competência e esmero, DEUS abençoe você e sua família e ganhou mais um inscrito.
Прекрасная работа. Только золотые руки и сердце могут с такой любовью восстанавливать историю вещей.
Thanks 👍
I like the way that you censor the light when welding, so it's not hurt to the eyes when we watched it.
glad you liked it
Amazing restoration again ! Hole's repair are really incredible ! Very good work ! Continue to dream us my friend 😊🥰😛
Thank you Cyril I really appreciate it 👍 Cheers!
Excelente trabalho! Delicado e preciso até as minúcias da peça. Parabéns desde aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷.
muito obrigado :)
You can see the level of diligence in everything he does from the restoration work and at 5:12 by blurring the welding. Check other videos and not everybody does that, it saves your eyes.
glad you like it :)
A phone screen can't reach the luminosity of welding.
Are you serious? 🤣🤣 Please tell me you're not serious.
Cameras may not pick up on the spectrum that would otherwise be harmful to our eyes, but that doesn't make the bright, bright light any more appealing to look at. It does indeed save your eyes to have it blurred like that, it's unnecessary, anti-aesthetic brightness otherwise. Might not outright blind you or do any lasting harm, but why keep a very bright flash regardless? I watch this shit at night before going to bed, intense lights also have the effect of staving off sleepiness, which I already normally do anyways just by looking at the screen, but I sure don't need MORE light in my eyes haha
I hope you are joking.
As someone who is a time traveler from that era I concur on what this sword looked like.
This knife could come from the 3 Shocktrooper units from Italy during the War: Arditi, Bersagileri, or Alpini
👍👍
More likely a Chinese replica, that has been corroded to make a UA-cam video
@@mm_____ is not easy found Chinese replica of this kind of things
@@mm_____ the blade steel does look very cheap
@@andream2854 its really really easy to find chinese replicas of most historic knives
I like this type of restoration better then a lot of other channels. Yes the artifacts are cleaned, repaired, and made functional again but you can still see tiny details in it that clearly indicate it’s old. Some other channels go so far in the restoration process that the objects look like they came out of an assembly line yesterday with none of their original soul.
thanks for your comment. It is not easy to say what it the right way but I like to maintain some of the patina of the objects I restore :)
Спасибо. Шикарная работа!
thank you very much :)
This is my new favorite channel to watch. This guy is amazing
I was thinking to myself he looks like a dentist today with his little hooks and drills. And then right after you said it in the video (text) 😅✌🏻
Bet you wish you had a sandblaster for teeth 😱😄
Awesome dagger, great result as always.
ha ha ... 😉 Thanks for watching
Прекрасная работа! Реставрация удалась!
PS: Холодильник на месте и содержимое обновилось. 😉
thanks a lot for your comment 🍻
Спасибо за ваш труд! Это реально круто!!!
thank you I am glad to hear that :)
The turquoise color of the dirty handle was actually quite wonderful
It's blue part is just magnificent. I wish you wouldn't restore that part.
Unfortunately, that’s bronze rust
Some of us prefer not to contract tetnis bc rust looked pretty
Is that handle made of copper by any chance?
Ummmmm, now if the owner wanted to paint it that would be ok. But that pretty blue stuff isn’t a good thing for the metal it’s covering.
@@soulsearcher117 Looks similar to Copper Chloride, almost as it it was grown with a "create your own crystal" kit....
