This man is removing rust with rust and detailing in coffee, hell yah
Thanks for watching Nic. Said like that I sound like a badass. Have a super week
The setup of your video is the exact reason I came to youtube right now. Thank you very much for this video.
Thank you very much for watching, and have a great weekend
That looks like a good way to store knives that are prone to rust , I know i have one or two that are slowly rusting away now the tricky bit for me is finding where I left them..👍
That also happens occasionally. Thank you JP appreciate you watching.
My carved knoves the huntsman and the field knife are rusting. Its super disappointing considering they were $450 and $230….
Thank you for making this very helpful video. Now I'll be able to repair my new and surprisingly rusty Damascus blade. It was only in the sheath for a month, and it was covered in rust. Thanks again!!
Thank you for the kind words and thank you for watching. Have a great weekend
Thank you for making this video, I'm trying to research ways to restore the karambit i spent $100 USD on because I just pulled it out of the sheath and the entire edge is rusted.
I hope it is not too far gone and I hope it helps. Thank you for watching
Literally just pulled mine out of the sheath today after probably a month or so of not touching it and was like “wtf who got this soaking wet and put it back in the sheath”😂
Thank you so much sir. This helped alot!
Thank you very much for watching
After cleaning i use carnauba car wax for protective coating. Works well and knife will not rust easily anymore.
Thank you for the information, and I will give it a try. Have a great weekend
love the Afrikaan accent, groeten uit Nederland!
Thank you very much, and have a great weekend
Really cool video, thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much for watching and have a great weekend
@@STUFFWEDOsame to you! Sharks or Lions?
neither is my team but the Lions are closer to me.
I use wax paper, it also works great!
Wax paper is the smarter thing to do. I was too lazy to go and look for some.
Damascus steel is super annoying to maintain. Cleaned and oiled my knife generously. Put it into a water free oiled sheath. Took it out months later and the entire blade is covered in rust. You would think I soaked the whole thing in water after washing it with soap and put it away. I guess the blade has to be wrapped in plastic but that just seems ridiculous.
It is very annoying but today there are people and places that make Stainless steel Damascus. If that is more your thing
It does need to be wrapped in plastic. When I received mine, they were soaked in oil and wrapped in plastic. I oil mine regularly and they still get super rusty. It's a pain.
Do you possibly know what kind of steel wool you used? I think I heard you say fine or coarse, I accidently bought super fine wool and it is not getting the job done.
No idea but I am sure both will work
Not a huge fan of the sheath shove tho, probably will warp it n she’ll be loose
I'm considering picking up a Damascus blade. It concerned me to hear that they rust without maintenance. Thanks for your video!
Thank you for watching Carl. Civivi has a few Damascus blades in the 9cr range that is stainless but otherwise it is going to rust.
Don't buy one. They are high maintainance and overrated. Stick with stainless steel.
They rust with maintenance. They just rust.
Would it be better to use steel wool soaked in mineral oil? I use steel wool cleaning products on my job (on mostly glass and stainless steel), and our number 1 rule is it has to be super wet or else it will scratch. I'm looking this up to try to fix my Damascus steel sword. I am devastated to see rust on it. 😕
I am sure very fine Steel wool and mineral oil will work. Good luck and thanks for watching
South African Accent?
Yes, Sir. Thank you for watching
It only takes a couple days to rust
Thanks! I've got a few damascus knives. One was getting rust. This worked great for cleaning it.
I'm glad it helped, and thank you for watching.
Thank you. I just picked up a Damascus blade and it has this exact problem! I was going to use dubbin or some mink oil on the blade to seal it. Thank you again for this information!
Thank you for watching CG. I am glad I could help.
That helped me, right here. Thank you
Thank you and thank you for watching
Stunning knife and video thanks 👍🤝🍻
Thank you Frederik you are a very kind person.
This guy is hilarious!!!!
You got a suggested oil?
Straight mineral oil
