Butcher Knife Restoration into 'One of a kind'

This is my customization of an old butchers knife. It was my first time taking apart and working with a knife and I found the hardened steel was very difficult to work with. I now have so much respect for knife makers as it is not an easy craft! Lots of mistakes were made, but I learned a lot in the process! I look forward to restoring more knifes.
Much Love,
Dr Restoration

Thank you for your kind words! More to come!

@@DrRestoration oh and another thing is that i really like how u dont show the end product in the thumbnails. Just for me personally it kinda ruins the video when I already know what it looks like. So good job and keep it up!

I have been a butcher for 36 yrs and I love good blades. I've seen old knives like that used as skinning knives. Beautiful work.

An interesting project! In the original, it looks like a large skinning knife, possibly one that began its life as an old cavalry saber, and later became a butcher/skinner (based on the curvature, which is much more pronounced than I have typically seen, the lack of any maker's mark, and the simplicity of the tang). I try to offer constructive feedback for those I watch. I noted your use of electrolysis for rust removal, and had a couple of thoughts. First, it may be helpful to clean the black off while the piece is still wet, it tends to be a lot more difficult once dried. Second, using multiple anodes may be helpful on some projects.

Thank you for the feedback! I’m
a strong believer in jumping in head first and learning to do things by DOING them, it’s the best way even though mistakes are often made.😅 This knife was truly very difficult for me as the blade was very hardened.

[@MehulShaRma]

Yo loved it cool knife and the Song. What is the name of the song??

[@DrRestoration]

I will check and get back to you!

это нож четников, его не надо чистить, я храню его под порогом от проникновения духов злобы.

[@MasterFlex126]

I thought you were Dr Restoration not Dr Recreation. I swear that butcher's knife was better off without you bro! Literally butchered the butcher's knife. 😂 I do like your videos though but I don't know about this one ✌️

[@DrRestoration]

One of my firsts, gotta start somewhere right?? 😂

New handle is awkward.

[@nealbullington8301]

Restoration? More like alteration.

[@Uberden]

That’s definitely butchered

This knife was bugly when you got it.
Bugly = Butt Ugly
It became fugly when you restored it.
Fugly = F***ing Ugly
The tang was already too short & you shortened it even more? Not good. I'm a fan of full tang knives.
