Old Hand Forged Knife Restoration

  • It was an absolute honor to restore this old hand forged masterpiece from 1954. Blacksmith Eivind Hovden with registered blacksmith stamp E.H. in Norway started forging knife blades from 1925. Welding high carbon steel between mild steel by hand in coal forge for this gentleman was an easy task. After 66 years the blade still looks amazing and hopefully after my restoration it will survive the next 66 years.
    Beside the knife restoration in this video, I also made a wooden handle (curly birch wood), miniature brass pommel for the knife tang and leather scabbard. Several things I did for the first time in this video and they are:
    - making a wet form leather scabbard;
    - using treadle powered lathe for metal and making small brass pommel;
    - cutting and shaping the antler for the handle.

      Thanks a lot, maybe one day! Good things come with patience. I guess one of the reasons is that I am not as aggressive as other creators to gain more subscribers and I post exclusively to UA-cam, no other platforms. But I know that 41k is genuine, wonderful and supportive. For me that is priceless 👍

      When you combine love and passion for something there are no limits I believe. Hitting obstacles along the way didn't discourage me, it made me even more persistent to find a way to overcome them and reach the goal. But that strength comes from individuals like you, who believed in me and supported my channel from the very beginning. Without you friend and many others this channel would not survive this long. Thank you for being there for me for so long. From bottom of my heart I am grateful for that! Stay safe and thank you for waiting patiently for my new videos!

    I want to see the industrial revolution of your shop! One motor, and 15 axles and 50 belts swirling everywhere. My great grandfather had a blacksmith shop with 1 motor powering several things (drill press, lathe, grindstone, and a few belts going to things removed before my time). Im in Eidsvoll if you want to have a look.

    • @FFD_Restorations
      @FFD_Restorations  Рік тому

      That would be a drastic change 😅. I am familiar with the similar setup where the water is powering many machines through belts. Both systems are simple but yet quite complicated for one person to make it happen in a very limited time after work and hobby budget. From video production perspective sound would be a real challenge to record since the both systems are quite loud. Uansett, jeg setter stor pris på ditt forslag og tusen takk for invitasjonen!
