This reminds me of the spokeshave I found at the bottom of my father's toolbox a couple months ago. Hasn't been used in years, but surprisingly still in good nick.
I've been watching your videos in reverse order....going back in time. It is interesting to see the "de-progression" of tools and techniques that you use. Your tools get more "primitive." This is not a criticism, just an observation that in these older videos you have less "appropriate" tools...but you make the most of them. I love to see how much you have learned and improved as you go forward in time. I also love to see the advent of certain tools and techniques. For example, the first video where you use paint stripper, or the first video that uses rust remover instead of vinegar, etc. It will be a sad day when I get back to video number one......meaning, I will have to wait for each new video as they come out instead of binge watching as I am doing now. You appeared in my RUclips video feeds after I started watching the "My Mechanics" channel. I am sure you know of him. You two should do a big collaboration video together!!
Omg! Hey, Twin! I was planning on saying almost the exact same thing. Only I was thinking de-evolve. I even came here the same route you took. From My Mechanics. Cool!
I assumed that, because I love your content so much, you have hundreds of comments under every video; very surprised to see that it’s not the case here! I’ve been binging on restoration videos lately and I’m so, so happy I found this channel - oodles of good content ^^ Keep up the good work!
Nicely done. Not that you asked, but I'd recommend two small changes to your process. First, flatten the sole with the plane completely together and under tension. This would be the case for any metal bodied plane, spokeshave, etc... Second, flatten and polish the back of the blade by lapping it flat through various grits. I flatten up to 2000 grit and then strop. works for me. Other people will flatten up to 12000 grit and then polish in microns. My experience shows me the two things I mentioned will take this from good to maybe just shy of great :-). Keep up the good work!
It's more of a cosmetic restoration. I'd be interested to see things that pertain to the functionality of the spokeshave like flattening the blade bed, etc.
Hi, my friend, how are you? I connected your channel today and I loved it. The delicacy with which you deal with the pieces is brilliant. Make me curious: What vinegar do you use, what kind? Alcohol, apple or wine. I grate you with the information, because I love it, clean my shoes
Always thought I've seen all of your videos but I've come across a couple or 3 that I've never seen before like this one. I guess it was private? Idk I'm not complaining just saying.
Only in the modern production runs. The older ones that were made in England (as you can see in the video) from the 1950s (I think) onwards had a plain metal cap. The one I own was my granddad's, and he died in 1981.
Greatest spokeshave ever made --worth its weight in diamonds!---a masterpiece !
I learned a few good methods from your demonstration. The film is nice and slow and clear. Thank you, will check out your other instructions.

Beautiful clean up and restoration.
Tools never really get old, they just need a bit of care to bring them up good as new.
I recently found a few of these inside an abandoned farm, they’re quite interesting. They remind me a lot of draw-knives.
Fantastic job.
Great job !
nice job
I just got one of these from a mate so I can make a wooden bow saw but I want to restore it when returned, cheers.
I dont know what this thing is but its sure cool to watch!
super tare
I'd be interested to know how old it is.
Good Job !!!
