Old Broken Automatic Knife Restoration. Making a new blade
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- I found an old broken automatic knife and decided to restore it. Restoration is not easy. The knife is similar to the Switchblade Knife, Shur-Snap Colonial. The blade in the knife was broken and I made a new blade. Made a new knife. Removed the rust. I hope you liked my restoration.

Your artistry with the video camera is only exceeded by your talent as a knife maker.
Bravo sir!
Yeah man,I second that 👍🏻
This looked like a lot of work , thank you for putting in the effort. Top marks.
Excellent choice of restoration subject. I've seen enough bench vises, coffee grinders, and rusty wrenches being restored. An old broken switchblade is a welcome change. Good skills too.
What about wire & tubing bender
As a Knife collector I absolutely love the design of this knife.
Excellent repair/restoration. That one is a real nice addition to a collection.
SUPER job. 👍🏻👍🏻
Enjoy those young hands and eyes while you can.
Mine are starting to fail me.
Thank you! Keep yourselves!
Ditto
The effort and honesty to put in 'failures and further adjustments is really impressive. It would be so easy for you to just cut it down and be like "Oh I did it first time". Instead you really show the process.
Круто сделал👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 отличная работа, но эту ржавую, кривую пружину ты не мог поменять🤷🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Really impressed that you stuck with it and filed and polished the edge by hand. I would have gotten impatient and taken it to the belt sander.
I love the jig you made to get that angle ground in. Magnificent job on this restoration. All of your work is amazing.
I love old mechanical knives , I like the action whom ever designed this knife put a lot of thought into it .
the people who designed and made mechanical clocks, cuckoo clocks, automatons, etc. all before there was electricity or power tools, maybe were the smartest people of all time.
Спасибо! Повеселился вместе с Вами от души! Видно :, что руки растут откуда надо и чувство юмора на высоте. 👍
Now that’s quality work, well done.
honestly, i liked the way it was... even with the broken blade... had that handed down a few generations feel to it
I could tell it had been used for many yrs after the blade broke, imagine someone still using it instead getting a new one, sentimental value maybe or too poor for new one or maybe didnt care.
Impressive restoration! The blade grinder was cleaver and ingenious 👍😊
thanks)
Молодец..руки..ростут.
Откуда..должны..рости
Amazing work. I would love to see some texts explaining steps before the sequences start.
Really nice video!
Thanks!
Bon traveil.bravo.
Outstanding restoration of a very interesting piece!!! Your mastery of multiple skills provides an excellent result!!! Incredible job!!! Thanks for sharing your work with us!
This guy has a very unique blacksmithing technique that I never seen before
There's no blacksmithing in this video, and all the technics he uses here are fairly basic in knife making
@@lamproknives that what I meant, most video I see like this the restorer usually forge the blade not repurpose a file
On top of that file tends to break once you mess with the structural design
@@goat5635 oh, that was sarcastic 🤣
Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship and a please to watch.
That's the coolest knife I have ever seen. Awesome job.
Such a great restoration, I love that knife. Well done
Super , super mișto!
Nu am mai văzut asemenea dispozitiv de declanșare a lamei .
A very, very special knife--- of apparent Spanish manufacture: those of unsurpassed design.
A knife I covet greatly, and worth every second of this painstaking restoration.
Thanks for sharing.
I wish I could find one like this, but it is likely only a few such were made by one dedicated artisan. What a find!
Обычная тюремная самоделка из России. Грубость изделия связана с минимумом доступного инструмента при изготовлении.
@@user-vw7cx6zz7b I am surprised. Perhaps a Spanish influence, then? The design is impeccable, regardless of finish.
That's quite the knife, the construction was significantly different from all the examples I have seen, the handle was made out of solid steel, and filed beautifully, I can see why you chose to grab it, regardless of the blade, this is a rare one, and the blade design you chose was perfect for it, a nice clip point design, beautiful and intimidating all at the same time. I would have chosen replacement Brass screws, but I have to say the polished steel ones look good too. So good work! I was expecting you to make a new sliding block as the lock to replace the one inside, it looked pretty rough. But all in all, I'd say you came out with a significantly better knife that when you started the video with!!! :P LOL
Thanks for watching my videos! Next time I will consider my mistakes
i"ll never get tired of seeing this video
Excellent as always
bad heat treatment. then you test to see if it's shape by cutting sand paper. bet it scratched the blade. still need design
I'll give you some news on this flick knife. It is Italian and probably from the 19th century given the manufacture.
It was called "The Spaniard" "Lo Spagnolo" and was produced in Naples, in the region called Campania. During that period the Kingdom of Naples was under the aegis of the Bourbons, who you may know were Spanish.
It was also known as "white pocket weapon" among the Guappi, minions of the Camorra lords of the time (1850).
Interesting! Do you know if ever the "vendetta" style knife was ever spring assisted?
I would love to buy 1 exactly like this. Make an awesome pocket knife
С закалкой клинка не уверен, в пружину масло не надо, просто грифель от карандаша на тереть, он не собирает грязь и пыль. Ну рукоятку заворонить, смотрелось бы куда лучше.
That old knife became very beautiful.
Nice restoration, well done,
Stunning knife
Mermerized doing your work....
Hi Rextorer beautiful knife beautiful restoration good job I'm glad that you have restored that knife wonderful job
Thanks for watching my videos!
Watching you make that jig is worth a subscription.
Гарна праця. Механізми у ножах, замість мастила краще використовувати стержень звичайного, простого олівця. Покращує тертя і не накопичує пилу. Це не наполягання)), а порада. Спробуй і відчуєш різницю. Дякую за відео.
👍🫵🏻👍
Дякую! Наступного разу обов'язково спробую)
that looks fantastic… another wonderful job as always…….🔧⚒️🔩🛠️🔨⛏️👏👏👍👍🍻🍻
I would have liked to have seen how you put the coiled spring back as I would imagine it to be pretty difficult. Good vid and nice knife deserved the work
it wasn't hard. One end is fixed on the axis of the knife, the other end is wound around
Me gusta el mecanismo de cierre y apertura de la navaja !! Saludos de Argentina. Quedo como nueva!! Felicitaciones !
Stunning
Nice resto. I have been collecting knifes for many years. The solid handle is rare, Was costly to make and heavy making it uncomfortable in the pocket. How ever it was durable. I do have a few switchblades in my collection but not a solid body example. I will have to search the maker and hunt one down for my display. Thanks for posting.
Bravo, 10 points👌🏻
In Germany you need a weapon license for this kind of "devices", because it's actually not just device - it is indeed a weapon, but well done job then after all ... ! 😉🦊
Fabulous! Great job!
The thing that made me watch the whole video vas to see the finish product but the thing that made me sub to the chanel.was how you made the knife sharpening sistem with the wood and metal rod..genius.
Real nice job.❤❤
If you ever need to quench something again. Heat up a piece of metal and throw in the oil. For example take that old piece of blade and either throw in the oven or even heat to orange with the blow torch. Will save you some time. Just a thought from a hobbyist blades bladesmith. Great video btw!!
Awesome job, that knife is a work of art!
Thanks!
Клинки з напильника це топ тема))) я своїм ножем пишаюсь як той той😅 також горн з гівна і палок ліпив, та тільки кував на рельсі. Нехай він був з порушенням всих допусків, та для мене він крутий)))
Зроблене своїми руками завжди дороге)
It looks like a brand new knife and you did an amazing job restoring it!!
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Just gorgeous!
WOW nice .
Me gusto' el trabajo realizado !! Felicitaciones de Buenos Aires,Argentina.
Gracias!
Nice job
That’s a beaut!
Exceptional work on this restoration mad skills!
great skills
لا اِلهَ الّا رَبَّ الْعَوالِم حُسَين جَلَّ جَلالَه❤️
Pickled knife my favorite
We call that a switchblade, and they are highly illegal, LOL. However, for an antique collectors item, wow. Beautiful.
Switchblades are not illegal in the entire USA. Each state has their own laws regarding knives (including switchblades). Based upon my research, they are legal in most states.
pretty work
Nice work and an excellent subject
amazing! Maybe a hundred yrs from now itll be rusty and blade broken and someone will restore it again...maybe theyll have no clue that it was restored before. Maybe this process of wearing it out, then restoring it, will continue on for thousands of yrs....at some point it may turn into a completely different knife than it started, maybe many times over.
Well done!!!
Nicely done sir.
It's always great to restore vintage items, good job man.
Nice jobb......👍
Great !

Excellent work. Super.
Thanks!
Bardzo fajny ten nóż. 👍
Extremely interesting, I think you are the most creative man ! Your video is so fantastic !
Carino. Buon lavoro. Una affilatura non ci sta male però.
Nice job!
A typical knife of a Soviet criminal, made in places of deprivation of liberty, but simply "in the zone" - a camp of the Gulag system.

Awesome
Wspaniała robota niespotykany nóż pierwszy raz takie cudo widziałem

tres bon travail beau couteau bravo
Egy lelkes amatőr!
Fantastic job!
thx!
Good job 👍
Thanks!
España.Muy interesante
If you turn the spring to consolidate the coil, you might be able to pull it out intact. Whether it will be useable is another question.
What a beautiful thing 😊
Great 👍 restoration 😃. Greetings from Belgium 😉🇧🇪🖐️
Thank you!
Well done.great detail work.
Very very good!
Сказочный рукожоп. Спиливал головки винтов бормашинкой - изуродовал накладку, делал лезвие - напильником работал в обе стороны 🤦♀️, ну а то что в конце наточенным ножом наждачку режет это вообще трындец…
Excellent work 👍
