Furniture restorers would never use this snake oil. It’s a temporary solution that renders actual restoration nearly impossible.
You're absolutely correct, but that's also the point. It's not a snake oil, it's a product that makes old furniture look much better without the expense of restoration. If someone desires a perfect restoration, they probably need to contact a professional restoration specialist.
❤ uranium glass
Got one 30 yr ago.hones up real nice.
Bought a Case XX USA 3 Dot (1997) Red Stag R5207 SS Mini Trapper Knife about a year or two ago at an antique shop and use it for an every day carry. Now that I'm a Pawpaw, I reckon I'm one of them good ol grandpas now 😎
No doubt about it!
Great video!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
I don't trust greedy companies who never care about people safety.
Thanks for watching!
nice ❤
First I've ever heard someone say jigged bone was a synthetic material. Jigged bone is cow bone that's been "jigged", or cut, to add texture to the handle scale.
How do you value uranium glass items?
We search demand and previous sales comparables. It's more of an art than a science. Any single thing is only worth what someone is willing to pay, so we try to learn what like items are selling for in places like eBay, fb marketplace, auction houses, and more.
HI, I'm thinking of starting my own collection of Uranium Glassware. Do you know where I could find some?
Hello! Check out our Facebook page. We would be glad to help you get started. We've got pieces suitable for all budgets, and we can ship. Also, if you're in the area, swing by and see us.
@@BackPorchAntiques Alright thanks for the tip! I'll see what I can do!
I’ve been carrying a Case pocket knife for as long as I can remember and I’m 67 years old. I carry the trapper Buffalo horn handle right now. I thought I lost it once bought gave a hart attack but I found it.
This stuff works great. You should’ve dusted the bottom though, and just removed the dusting out of the video
Thanks for watching. We wanted to show the transformation from the barn to finished product.
Yep it’s safe just don’t drink from them, and if you do the uranium can’t be dissolved by stomach acid.
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
I bought a limited edition case knife set got it home and saw it's made in China on package
Jigged bone is not synthetic, Jigged bone is a natural material used for knife handles that is made by dyeing and jigging cattle bone.
Thanks for the information!
Is it for sale?
Hello. It is still available. Give us a yell at the store and we can help you with it. 423.609.7923
Is it for sale?
The older knifes are very nice but I’ve started getting the Christmas trappers (preferably with engravings on the sides) for every year since 2010 and they’ve gained a decent bit of value
Neat idea!
i have a uranium glass chalice i sometimes use, and i also have a uranium glass ashtray literally next to my bed. ive used a dosimeter on them and although if you get right up close on it the detectors absolutely screaming, its all alpha and beta so it disappeared to background radiation past around 3-4 inches. its totally harmless.... however NEVER EVER EVER USE FIESTAWARE.... that will literally give you cancer. ive a-b tested fiestaware with both thorium mantles and radium paint on dials, fiestaware is way worse, its really funny, ive got a few bits like an old pocketwatch that are radium painted and the CPM doesnt even come close to a fiestaware pepper pot
Thanks for the information!
Radiation has a lot of struggles getting through glass. So it isn't released in high enough amount to harm people in uranium glass. However, if it is broken it will expose some of the uranium and can become slightly toxic
Seems like a pretty logical point of view. Thanks for sharing!
Uranium is also used in nuclear moms like the little boy and nukes
Never a fan of when my mom goes nuclear 😉
It both safe and not safe from what I know. If its just sitting there and I believe even used lightly not a problem. The problem comes if its chiped or starts to wear away then you have BIG problems.
But i could be 100% wrong
The mystery of the safety is something that almost makes it more interesting and intriguing
We bought some glasses and jugs that we drink from and no problems after 1 year
First comment that we’ve seen of someone using them. Good to hear all is good so far.
Hello, I have several very old antiques, approximately 2,000 years old. If you know someone suitable who might be interested in purchasing them, or if you yourself are interested, I can send you photos so you can take a look. Thank you.
Thanks for reaching out. That seems a little out of my wheel house of antiquity. We special in American Primitives and more modern pieces. However, that seems really cool and would be easy to get wrapped up in!
It looks like a mini trapper. I’ve seen one like the big one. My gramps had one and called it a bears tooth. He carried it when hunting beaver and bear in the early 80s. He was born in 1920.
Be more intelligent. Why take a risk with this shit?
Every day is a risk. To each their own on how they live each day.
Watching this 2 years after it was posted, found a mah jong set from the 1920's at the goodwill bins and want to do it justice in one of my first wood restorations! Thank you for the helpful tips
Thanks for watching!
Very informative video, and the collection itself is missive and interesting
Looking for a small green stag handled 3 blade spli back spring case knife
I'd love to sell you one, but I don't have one currently. Happy hunting!
Manganese glass exhibits luminescence similar to uranium glass. The fastest method is to measure with a dosimeter. If you haven't done this, you may be surprised to find that not everything is uranium glass.
That's true. Common terminology groups it all together for those who aren't interested as much in terminology.
Case is crap especially that vandalism steel shit.i can't put a edge on.use outdoor edge or anything with a replaceable blade.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Some people love them, some don’t.
Them 2 by sum
Those pieces have already sold.
There are a few different types of black light/uv flashlights. (The light band can vary) The one I have will charge glow in the dark items... will it work to find this glass too?
I am not certain about that. I'm familiar that there are different options of lights, but I don't know the difference well enough to comment.
Great vidio
I have a multi color green n red hen on nest I’ve had for years had no idea they could be valuable .
You run a higher radiation risk going out between 10 am and 2 pm. Uranium glass rocks! I’d be delighted to have any of these pieces, especially the ring tree from your last uranium video.
That ring tree is a great piece!
Auto body work maybe
I'm finally starting my Fallout merch display and I plan to thrift a bunch of this to add to the authenticity of it, can't wait
What exactly does double x mean. Enjoy your content thanks
Originally, it meat that the steel was high-tempered. Now, it's a very clever branding option.
What am I missing…….dont these glass pieces emit gamma rays since they contain uranium?
According to what I've researched, the levels are not large enough to hurt anything.
@ I’m not so sure about that….. we were taught that any amount of radiation is bad and that gamma rays are the worst , more so than alpha and beta particles. Having this stuff in your house or business exposes you to a lot of radiation over months /years. Just a thought…..
Appreciate the thought! The beauty of it is that we all can decide for ourselves.
Hardly more radiation than you get from cosmic and terrestrial radiation, not to mention radon indoors!
@@billzech4337 There is gamma radiation all around you from cosmic sources, and soil and rock. To avoid ionising radiation entirely, you would have to live under water and alone, because humans are also radioactive, due to the potassium in our blood and the C-14 in our tissues. Alpha radiation is the worst if ingested. Beta radiation burns skin and is dangerous in large doses. Most gamma radiation just passes through us with no interaction, but x-radiation is stopped by bone and tissue, so far more dangerous.
Imagine thinking that some glass vase is worth 100 bucks.
Pretty cool! We know.
I have half-pint jar 13
Wow! Is it blue or clear?
@BackPorchAntiques clear
Cattaraugus. Pronounced "cat a raw gus".
First one is a reverse peanut.
Want to sell mine. Glass uranium glass
For hand hewn beams
After watching this video it is very clear that you need to do considerable more research as there are many false comments in this one...see below.
The beautiful thing about comments is that we get to learn some new things from others. Also, comments=engagement, which RUclips loves. Probably why the video has 178k views. Thank you for watching and thank you for the engagement.
Not interested in making money off the glassware. I am attracted to the color and beauty of glass . It makes me happy .
Hey look everyone Uranium Glass... ya fucking dork
