Hallo, ich habe so ein niedliches Messer von meinem Vater zu meinem 8.Geburtstag bekommen, heute, 51 Jahre später benutze ich es immer noch als Brieföffner. Ihre Restauration ist super!! Grüße aus Baden-Württemberg
I don't know if this has been said before, but to me, you're like the Bob Ross of knife restoration. There, I've said it. Your videos are informative, relaxing to watch and inspirational. Love it.
This was one of the most “satisfying” videos I’ve seen from you Kyle….not sure why but I just love it when you do restoration….(might be something to do with my advanced years).
I was just thinking literally right before you put this video up Kyle hasn't done a restoration video in a while. I've been watching you since the very beginning when you first got started on UA-cam and absolutely love all you're content.
Beautiful job Kyle , I have only seen one of those knives in recent years. It was paired with the bigger full size version in a double sheath . This restoration will last many family generations.
I have almost the exact same knife. Just with less rusting on the blade. I appreciate your integrity to share what you listen to in the shop. Love a good sermon in the background.
From one knife maker to another, fantastic job Kyle! That would have been made roughly 75 years ago. Only fitting that it gets the respect it is due, and put into service for another 75+ years.
Heard the preaching in the background, I do the same. Would recommend Pastor Jones from Shield of Faith Baptist church, I think you will enjoy his preaching. Really nice Restoration 👍
It's a nice little thing. I have something similar awaiting the same sort of work, maybe a touch bigger and Sheffield made, but the threaded portion of the tang has snapped making it just that bit more of a pain in the neck than I feel like taking on until the weather's warmer.
So cool! I have the full size one and it also has *SOLINGEN* stamped at the base of the blade. Thick spined blade made to never break and last generations. I don't know what the steel is but it sharpens and hones so nicely.
So satisfying to watch a beautiful but well used knife like that transformed. Nice job Kyle. I have a chef knife I would like re-handled, it is an old US made Forgecraft, just a fantastic knife where the geometry just works perfectly. I also have a fully finished custom made knife that needs handle and sheath. I was one my mentor made, and there was a steel defect inclusion in the spine. I suggested grinding it out, and made a good job of it, and it went on the peg waiting to be finished. Then he passed a year later and I bought the blank from his widow. I would like to use it as a gardening knife.
Thanks for the tutorial, congratulations on the new arrival. Excellent video, with soft music in the background. My thoughts are though Large rivets distribute the load better, smaller rivets are more aesthetically pleasing.
I had that same exact knife as a kid and like that one the leather handle was a write off. Sadly I lost that one but inherited my dad’s Bowie and skinner of the same brand. Planning to do sheaths for those 2 in the future. Love your work
Nice job I might have wanted to change the sheath with a leather spacer to protect the stitching. I like that you upgraded a chose a thicker leather. I was thinking it would be nice if you wet formed and molded it but I can see you were staying as original as possible.
Great video. My wife brought home a knife just like this .The only difference is it has original stag . Its very rusty so i will definately need to take handle off .
I have 2 of these both in the same pityted blade shape though the leather grip is in decent shape and the other handle is buck antler. The sheaths are shot, I may attempt them myself and that's a great tip on the brass wire wheel! Both are Edge mark and handed down from my grandfather when I was 30, some 22 years ago, Cheers Kyle!!
I think you have the best "knife" channel on the www. please a little more time to admire your craftsmanship (display the finished work a little bit more, so we can be even more in awe of your skills!).
Very nice restoration, at first view, I thought the blade should be taken down to a smooth base, but the final view of it looked like there was a pattern, like an ersatz Damascus or something. I rather preferred the original rivets, especially the rounded look, IDK if I would want to go looking for microscopic rivets or not ! Thanks
👍🙂 .. I'm from Germany.. i have the same knife as a child at the end of 70tes .. same shape .. I think the handle in the original was a piece of antler ..
I have never carried a fixed blade EDC, but I remember the original videos for your first Bake Apple knives. I said to myself If I ever carried a fixed blade, it would be the Bake Apple. Do you make left side sheaths for the Bake Apple? I'd like to consider getting one to carry while camping and on day hikes. God Bless.
I purchased a knife similar to this with a 5" blade at a house clearing sale for cheap, "RUKO" Solingen U4! Wondering if it is a decent knife or cheap junk?
Man I’m so glad I found this channel… I want to learn how to make my own knives and sheaths… I’d really like to make a parang… I had the Bear Grylls parang but somebody stole it… I loved that thing though. When I got it I had ideas of making my own… I just think it would be cooler than buying one. Yes I know, it was a cheap parang but I still liked it…😂
I would definitely have taken a couple of thousandths from the side of the blade to get rid of all the pitting provided there was enough material there to do that. I believe there was enough material. If you are going to make the knife look close to new then the pitting should have been removed. Just my opinion, Great job on everything else. Well done.

I enjoy watching your work
My uncle carried a knife just like that for his hunting knife for about 50 years . He loved it for elk hunting.

Your restorations are a joy to watch. Bringing back what many would not value to valued once again.
I actually have one of these knives. I couldn’t believe it when I saw your work. It’s very true to the original.
Very nice, kept the history and revealed the beauty.
You are amazing
God bless
A true craftsman.
I was just thinking literally right before you put this video up Kyle hasn't done a restoration video in a while. I've been watching you since the very beginning when you first got started on UA-cam and absolutely love all you're content.
I always liked these little knives for normal things that aren't real huge tasks
Beautiful job Kyle , I have only seen one of those knives in recent years. It was paired with the bigger full size version in a double sheath . This restoration will last many family generations.
Those were around when I was about 7-8 years old meaning the early 1970's in Alberta 🇨🇦
I see them at auctions all the time got a couple from there in last year or so .
Case still makes these, around 130 bucks for the big and little combo if I'm remembering correctly
Very cool work👌🏻
Excellent job on that restoration, Kyle. Absolutely stunning. 😊Thanks for sharing, take care and Cheers!
I have almost the exact same knife. Just with less rusting on the blade.
I appreciate your integrity to share what you listen to in the shop. Love a good sermon in the background.
Me too only mine is the next size up .
Absolutely gorgeous work what a beautiful little knife
Beautiful knife just the size I love 3 inches is the perfect size 4 inch max size. Great job. Darren
That's so very cool. I've never seen a little mini like that.
Outstanding job Kyle !!
From one knife maker to another, fantastic job Kyle! That would have been made roughly 75 years ago. Only fitting that it gets the respect it is due, and put into service for another 75+ years.
Love it, less is more, beautiful little knife, you sure did that one some justice, good job
Thanks for the video Kyle, Nice relaxing video.
Well done Buddy 😀
Kudos for your work and not having ear splitting loud music when not talking.
Beautifully done, sir!
Heard the preaching in the background, I do the same. Would recommend Pastor Jones from Shield of Faith Baptist church, I think you will enjoy his preaching. Really nice Restoration 👍
Thank you Kyle!
Nice work as usual Kyle!
Knife turned out hella dope, Kyle Noseworthy! Now you've got to stitch up an equally dope sheath for it as well!
Stunning work sir
It's a nice little thing. I have something similar awaiting the same sort of work, maybe a touch bigger and Sheffield made, but the threaded portion of the tang has snapped making it just that bit more of a pain in the neck than I feel like taking on until the weather's warmer.

Beautiful job Kyle, true craftsman 🗡️enjoyed the background music and message.
Great restoration Kyle. As for the pitting , to me it ads some character to the knife.
Beautiful work Kyle , Awesome music , Happy New Year , take care , God Bless
A fine instrument.
I had that same exact knife as a kid and like that one the leather handle was a write off. Sadly I lost that one but inherited my dad’s Bowie and skinner of the same brand. Planning to do sheaths for those 2 in the future. Love your work
What a fun video You did a great job with the knife

I have a west German buffalo skinner that has the same sheath as the one you finished there. It was my grandfather's hunting, fishing, camping knife.
Awesome result. Great work, KN.
Great video. My wife brought home a knife just like this .The only difference is it has original stag . Its very rusty so i will definately need to take handle off .
awesome knife
I could see you making one just like it, for yourself. Dad had a Buffalo Skinner made by that Company, my brother inherited it.❤❤❤
I have 2 of these both in the same pityted blade shape though the leather grip is in decent shape and the other handle is buck antler. The sheaths are shot, I may attempt them myself and that's a great tip on the brass wire wheel! Both are Edge mark and handed down from my grandfather when I was 30, some 22 years ago, Cheers Kyle!!
Another spectacular outcome Mr Noseworthy! I have an old Kinsfolk that could use the same treatment! Thanks for sharing with us!
True Testament To Your Craftmanship Kyle ! Nailed It Buddy ! Happy 2024 To You & Yours ! ATB T God Bless
Excellent job and beautiful restoration 😍😍
Would love to know the full story / history behind the creation of this wonderful piuece!!
I have one just like it in mint condition. Very common back in the 60s 70s and 80s. They were sold at almost every hardware and sporting goods store.
Love the videos like this.
Happy New Year, Kyle. Really cool restoration.
Amazing
Nice work. I love knives from Solingen. I guess a lot of people say that though.
I think you have the best "knife" channel on the www. please a little more time to admire your craftsmanship (display the finished work a little bit more, so we can be even more in awe of your skills!).
I miss the forged tang Solingen sheath knives from West Germany. You don't know what you've got until it's gone.
Pitting? Like when you restored my puukko, if I wanted a new knife I’d have bought a new knife. Beautiful little knife, love the leather handle.
Really nice, Kyle. I wonder what kind of stories that knife could tell?
Very nice restoration, at first view, I thought the blade should be taken down to a smooth base, but the final view of it looked like there was a pattern, like an ersatz Damascus or something. I rather preferred the original rivets, especially the rounded look, IDK if I would want to go looking for microscopic rivets or not ! Thanks

Do you make left side sheaths for the Bake Apple? I'd like to consider getting one to carry while camping and on day hikes. God Bless.
First like the old days...
What brand of knife?
Would love to have a little fixed blade like this, does anyone make one currently?
I purchased a knife similar to this with a 5" blade at a house clearing sale for cheap, "RUKO" Solingen U4! Wondering if it is a decent knife or cheap junk?
Man I’m so glad I found this channel… I want to learn how to make my own knives and sheaths… I’d really like to make a parang… I had the Bear Grylls parang but somebody stole it… I loved that thing though. When I got it I had ideas of making my own… I just think it would be cooler than buying one. Yes I know, it was a cheap parang but I still liked it…😂
Couldn’t you clean and recondition the leather to reuse? It wasn’t that scratched?
The buckle is oversized for the sheath beautiful job though
Anyone know the model?
I would definitely have taken a couple of thousandths from the side of the blade to get rid of all the pitting provided there was enough material there to do that. I believe there was enough material. If you are going to make the knife look close to new then the pitting should have been removed. Just my opinion, Great job on everything else. Well done.
I don’t understand why you’d put the rivets where the blade will dull up against them without a welt. 😬
Praise be to the Lord JESUS CHRIST brother! GREAT VID!
Bird knife
🙋♂️👏👏👏👏👏👏👍😉👌
Not a fan of pitting. You asked.
Nice Job. And I like that radio program etc what is background there. Are you Jesus believer ?
Superb job, Kyle!
