You ever think about purchasing a cutlers anvil or having one made so you can further extend your repairs like adjusting blade pitch, spring action and peening the handles onto the scales?
Yes. I’ve looked into it. Thinking about buying a pin anvil.
Wow! Really nice
Thank you!!
Nice job

Man Kevin, Another wonderful Art Piece Brother....😊
Thank you!!
Well done on that fishing knife the wood scales turned out awesome stay sharp Kevin
Thank you!!
Kevin I really enjoy the community you have built here with your hard work. The handle transformation on the fishing knife was a sight to behold. I am always happy to share info about strong Oregon companies that provide living wage jobs to people. C.R.K.T aka Columbia River Knife & Tool is one of them in the cutlery business. They were founded in 1994 and are fortunate to have a talented group of designers that are pretty well known in the industry.
Awesome!! Thank you!!
Good day Mr Kevin really enjoyed the video that fishing knife turned out fantastic. Really enjoy your channel and i hope you heal well. We say have a good day
Thank you!!
Sensational blend of all your channels ingredients!!!!!!
Thank you!!
Glad you like the handle material. I love that stuff also.
Great job on that one.
Now we both have a Palm wood fishing knife.
Thank you!! We do!! I love the Cattaragus Hobo for $1
That is my pride and joy knife. Have carried, have used it but mostly it is wrapped up and put away.
Very nice handles. Keep doing your work, Dr. Another patient saved. 😊
Thank you!!
Nice job on the handles 🇺🇸👍
Thank you!!
Great video Doc, keep up the great work. Hoping to send some knives from the uk and some I’ve made one day for you to test out.
That would be cool!
That gerber is what I carry regular great knife
Awesome!!
Absolutely gorgeous knife handles. Tom at knife delights is looking for ideas on what to do for replacing handles
Awesome!! Let him know…😎
@@theknifedoctor yes sir I did
Very cool how you didn't remove the pins and replace them. Just worked with them as is.
Than you!!
Hello KnifeDoctor (and friends)
I really enjoy your video's ! So much so that I've purchased my first Camillus scout knife. I was wondering if you could make a detailed step by step / DIY video about cleaning/polishing an old knife without power tools.
Kind regards from the Netherlands,
Joshua.
Awesome!! Great idea!! Thanks for watching from way over there!!
That dog will hunt, great job doc
Thank you!!
That one with the pheasant says, Peoria, IL. You know it’s got a little age because they used three letters for the abbreviations instead of two
Good morning doc love your videos,keep them coming. I just got an old robenson red bone sleeve board knife payed 20 for it .
That’s Awesome!!
Great restore. The handles look amazing, much better than the originals. Have a great day!
Thank you!!
So many knives,,, so little time to carry them all.
My box is from Wilmington Illinois thats only 6 miles north of South Wilmington Illinois T Roy Evens is a Buddy of mine. I made him a knife all ready lol

Probably the Moose lodge. A club like the eagles and elks.
Hot dang!! Those handles turned out fantastic!
And thank you again for the shoutout. Your package should arrive today…I’ll make sure to do an unboxing video.
Hope you didn’t cut that finger too deep. 🤞
Awesome!! LOL. It’s pretty deep. The springs are so strong on one particular knife! I shouldn’t have opened it with the other blade open.
@@theknifedoctor Oh man, did you need stitches?? I nearly stuck myself on camera today with that pointy Opinel 😂
Good Job I have a nice old Case Stockman I just bought yesterday from a secondhand store that has stainless blades pretty nice, but the shield is missing from the handles and one side of the bone handles is cracked, I wish I could replace that cracked handle and shield will Case dol that for me?
Hey doc I been watching your channel for about 6 months now I have learned a lot about knives I have been collecting knives for years to be honest I probably lost or got stolen from more then I can count but I done have a old imperial spring loaded toothpick I think it like a switch blade but the blade is real loose can it be tightened up or fixed it thinks it from the early 50s it one of my favorite knives is there any help for it
I grew up a few miles from Crete, IL
Awesome!!
Hi Kevin. We love watching your videos and we would like to know what you recommend for a reference source to identify and price vintage and modern knives. Thanks for any advice you can give.

Thank you!! Search for Author Houston Price. Collecting Knives. They made 15 editions. 15th is the best one and it’s the last one made. It was published in 2008. Thank you for your service!!
In re your comment about the shield On a Case Fish Knife that shield is a Hook Sharpener
I have a Yellow Delrin Case that’s just like that except I bought it new and have probably forgotten how to fish by now lol
Thank you!!

Hello Doc. I like watching knife repair. Where did you get / what is the name of the reference book you used for dating some of your knives makers years? Thank for all you do.
Love the shared knives
How do I reach out to you about that Benton Harbor knife that you just received from Illinois
Good afternoon! Just curious if you could show us where you store all the knives you keep? Thanks!
LOL…
I would really like to know the titles and publishers of the books you use that show all the info on the knives you talk about. Really like your channel.

Did you remove the grinding wheel from your bench grinder/polisher? Wonder because I just cut the heck out of my finger on mine and am thinking about doing so.
I did. I don’t use it and it does get in the way. I hate that you cut your self.
Welcome
Did you save the old scale from the fishing knife for a future pattern?
Yes!! LOL
Look very nice! Do you take repair jobs ? I have a 65 yr old switchblade my father purchased in Italy before he came to the states. Look forward to hearing from you thanks
No, sorry
Professional job! Hey. What's your whatnot called?

Please turn off the weather radio while you are doing your channel. I find it very distracting & I find it hard to follow your narrative.
I like my weather radio. Got to have it.
