    I have the same knife, it's in good shape but I want to relieve the spring tension on the blades. Your vid is a priceless aid!

    That is some beautiful work! My 93 year old dad just gave my son an old timer he bought in the 70s. It’s not in too bad of shape but wants to find someone to make it like new! What talent you have! So meticulous…just love it!

      Спасибо! Много лет назад это был классический нож. Жаль, что я поставил передние и задние ножи наоборот!

    OMG, it's too funny! I had to show my wife the clip about using kitchen dishes. You're not the only one busted, my friend! She immediately started rummaging through my stuff, ranting, "What's with you guys!" BTW, nice work 👍

      Thanks for sharing! The best part of this was when she was watching the video during editing and she saw that I had also used the white porcelain serving bowl for quenching the knife blades!! I am lucky I used canola oil this time instead of my usual choice of used motor oil. 🤙 🍻

    Lovely restoration/repair. Why didn't you use the plastic filler for the gap in the replacement handle?

    • @Restorology
      @Restorology  2 роки тому

      Thank you! I actually thought about that but the plastic weld material would not stick to the brass. I tried sticking it to a few different metals just to see and it did not adhere tightly. Also, without being able to color adjust it after application, it would have looked off color compared to the handle at that spot. Thanks for asking the question!

      Vielen Dank. Ich habe altes Öl verwendet, das für dieses Projekt abgelaufen ist, und ich werde es für zukünftige Projekte beiseite legen. Ich verwende normalerweise kein Öl zum Kochen und war mir nicht bewusst, dass es jetzt knapp ist. Ich bin gespannt, ob es hier dasselbe ist, weil ich es eine Weile nicht versucht habe, es zu kaufen.

    Those 'handle pieces' that you referred to are actually called scales (plural) or a scale (singular).

    I believe you got the blades on wrong. The main blade should go on first, now its covering the nail nick of the second blade.

    • @Restorology
      @Restorology  2 роки тому

      I hope not. I looked at several photos before assembling and this looked correct but you are right, the nail nick on the skinning blade is hidden when both are closed. Actually, it is hidden behind the middle brass liner even when the main blade is open. I'll check photos online again and correct it if it is wrong. Thanks for the comment! 🍻

I told the dude who owns it and he said it is fine the way it is but I told him that I will swap the blades. Won't take but a few minutes to do it. Thanks again for pointing out my mistake!! 🤙
