This is the most calm and chill machete restoration video I've seen, nice job btw
An old Collins & Co machete. Very nice.
Hey looks like you did a great job for your first go at it. It's nice to see a woman interested in restoration, very cool keep it up!
Thank you! It was a pretty satisfying project. Plenty to improve on, but I learned a lot.
Doing a similar job on 2 of my great-grandpa's corn knives is what lead me down the rabbit hole of making knives. Mine were even more pitted than this example. I used Evapo-Rust to soak them and then cold blued the blades. Made the scales out of some quarter sawn sycamore that I had. Just for grins I cut the necks and bases off of .223 cases and used them for the lanyard tubes. Hopefully someday they will make their way to a great-grandson.
That's so great to hear. Restoring knives and tools is so rewarding and a great way to honor family. I will have to try Evapo-Rust on a future project. Thanks for watching! -Kristie
Excellent restoration. I wish you chopped something with it though.
Awesome machete not bad at all. Awesome machete not bad at all.

What grit of sand paper did you use?
You forgot the most important thing in the whole video 🙄. You should definitely try it.
Yes! I should have included that on the video. Maybe I will make a short follow-up video.
