@@kaynef6637 I’m so sorry I saved me some money…I’m sure you would have paid more than asking price right?? I’m NEVER PAYING ASKING PRICE AT A FLEA MARKET, YARD SALE ETC!!!

It ain’t about honor buying at a flea market, it’s about getting the best price and saving ME some money to buy more knives!
@@theknifedoctor very nice. What are you using to buff it/clean it? I realize a buffer but what is the first wheel material you are using? Thanks Marc
Nice old case. I also like listening to the weather radio. No crappy music no commercials. I have owned a couple of those fishing knives over the years.
Well done. It's sometimes sad to see how the good old things are neglected or even thrown away - and it's so gratifying to rescue them and bring them back to life. My oldest knife is from around 1890 and was used as a sidepocket knife in a Bavarian Lederhose. Only yesterday I rescued old brass handles (around 1900) from doors somebody threw out during a renovation. The doors themselves were done and I have a couple of beautiful wooden ones at home for my own renovation project.
Amazing find and wow the way that old pocket knife turned out after a little tlc is so awesome. Love giving something that is useless new meaning to be continued to enjoy.
Thanks for posting this video, for some reason it popped up while I was looking for some fly fishing patterns. Anyway, the Barlow you have reminded me of my Dad’s that has been sitting in my desk drawer for 45 years since his death. I’m 68 and he told me when I was young he got it from his Dad…bottom line it too is old. Mine looks exactly like yours and I’m. Going follow your process for cleanup! Love these old knifes.
I have this same knife.. Very worn. My Grandfather bought new in 1925 - my brother had it next (he passed in 2013). Now its in my pocket everyday.. Great video, thanks.
I happened to lose the little carbon steel Case folder that my Mom carried in her purse for a good many years. Was a 1950s Case XXX, I miss it all over again whenever I see one...sigh...
Beautiful old case knife Kevin. Cleaned up nice! Books like that give you a reference to go by, but the reality is in the market of Case knife collecting,the Real serious collectors are very experienced and only lay down top cash for Mint examples. They can tell if the blade has even the slightest sharpening done etc. that being said.-There are knife guys like myself that don’t particularly seek out the Mint stuff. I prefer old valuable folders that are in the 80% -95% condition. To me they have that mojo! Your Awesome old Barlow’ there is what I prefer in a Classic pocket knife. When they’re Mint you don’t carry them and you gotta fuss to keep them polished. I don’t blame you for saying hey!!! I wouldn’t take less than $400. That old workhorse Barlow you saved from the Box means more because of its circumstance and love you put into it! You go to a knife show and lay down $475 for a Mint one in some guys glass - will not mean the same to your Heart and Soul. Enjoy that beautiful old Barlow. I scored on a beautiful old Case tested green bone Jack 2 months ago for $14 . Not mint - probably 90% and that’s the way I like em! God Bless
@theknifedoctor ya. My grandfather carried that exact same case ww2 through Korea. Still not sure what happened to it but as soon as I saw the video I actually teared up.
I HAVE ONE OF THOSE SCHRADE HUNTERS 110h is the model. My dad found one in an old truck when he worked at the scrapyard. Cleaned it and sharpened it, one of the best knives i own
Thank you for this video. It is fascinating to see a knife made nearly a century ago being restored to good functionality as well as fine appearance. This is what happens when the manufacturer starts off with quality materials: They just get better with age. That is why I like Case knives.
Any time steel has been stamped, if you can heat the steel until it discolors from the heat, even if the stamping has been sanded or polished off, the stamping will reappear. It will discolor a slightly different color from the heat treatment.
Well, it's very rare I sub a page after only one video and I confess I didn't have high hopes going in being doubtful a $5 knife could be worth so much but I'm wrong. The Case is exquisite. Excuse me, I have a channel to sub. I love that "sometimes you just have to let an old knife be an old knife"
Beautiful work. That Case is one awesome looking knife. Great job giving it a refresh. The bolsters and that bone handle give it some distinction the way you left them.
Heck of a find!! Masterful job restoring it also. I totally agree with you too. I wouldn't have polished the bolsters anymore either. That really small amount of pitting is what an 80-100 yr old knife is supposed to look like. Well done sir!!! Im so glad youre going to carry it too. Have a good one. Thanks for the videos, as always. 🙏
I have the same little table grinder. The moment you turned it on the sound is how I recognized it. Got mine from the sportsman's guide many years ago.
You got me into knives. Oh boy, next thing you know Im going to be traveling to find them. You did a fantastic job on that knife. It is a beautiful work of art.
You can chemicly remove a lot of rust on old knives with vinegar this way you don't have to use scrapers and abrasives so much and take a chance of damaging them. I have cleaned up a number of old knives with vinegar and a plastic cleaning brush. Sometimes I use a metal polish with a sonic toothbrush too. Weenol and an old Sonicare tooth brush works great.
I recently got some of those little plastic wheels that chuck up in a Dremel tool... They're kind of pinwheel looking deals that come in several color coordinated grits. Good for cleaning up blades and such without being as harsh as a wire wheel. They seem to work really good so far. Those things and a little Flitz is a good way to go without doing too much.
Amazing finds Kevin. They are awesome. You will have a tough time ever finding two better than that. You never know, could be one flea market away. lol
Get you some green ( you can use them all and work your way down) strope compound, put it on a stope, then work the bolsters, liners, and blade on that strop. It will be shiny and almost new looking. It won't take the stain out of the blade steel, but it will give it a nice coating.
The best knife purchase I made recently was getting two Case Classics for $75 each. I didn't realize that they were Case Classic, and the prices kept on dropping. One day I realized that they were Case Classics. I they were just on the site a Case knife. For those who don't know Queen Cutlery made most of the Case Classic that Parker contracted when he owned Case. When Bill Howard worked at Queen, he was in charge of the Case Classics and Winchesters. If you can't afford a GEC, get a Case Classic or a Winchester. The only problem with the two Classics I bought is that Queen was still using celluloid or some such material for scales. There is significant shrinkage, but I don't want to replace the scales because Bill Howard may have applied them.
I had a Barlow when I was a kid, we would play with them on the playground at school ever once in awhile at school, of course that was about 60 years ago
Can yall imagine teachers today catching you playing mumbly peg on the play ground? For you younguns, that’s when you and your buddies stand a couple feet apart and see how close you can stick your knife in the ground without stabbing your buddies foot. Maaaan those were the days. Thanks for the memories gentlemen.
I picked up a Case xx Barlow with the main blade being a spearpoint blade today at a flea market. I would love to know more about them. If you could make a video about them that would be awesome!!!
The Barlow is one of my favorite patterns. If you wanted to give it to me, I would not turn it down. lol.... The folding hunter is my other favorite pattern. Great find! It cleaned up good.
I have folders from seventies . Don’t remember case being 5$ but similar cheap Barlows were and sold in most sporting stores. Was a good bang for the buck for 9 year old
I really liked the weather radio in the back. I kind of thought he was going to do more to polish up that old knife but i guess it didn’t call for it, cool old pocket knife.
Very interesting. Things I didn't know, but am glad I happened across them. Makes me wish you were a neighbor. It'd be fun to see you drop by and play in my shop. I have cabinet (filtered air) buffers, a four wheel, variable speed grinder, several Dremel like tools (Foredom, RAM, dental (400,000 RPM) grinders and a chest full of bits. It'd give me a chance to learn a few more things.
Great Question!! The sheepsfoot blade is commonly seen in sailing knives because it does make it hard to stab yourself while working with rope and such on board an unstable surface. It's also seen in rescue knives because you can slip it under seatbelts, clothing, etc without too much worry of cutting the person being restrained by same. With a lot of steel behind the tip of the knife, I imagine they are relatively strong, although you don't get a really pointy point.
That knife was made during the war when we had a brass and copper shortage realistically in the condition of the knife if you got a $200 offer that's fair, remember that the top $is for new never sharpen. But you did very well. 😊
I've always felt grinder wheels where to abrasive sometimes and can ruin the surface of certain metals. So i just use fine steel wool to polish up older knives or i will just let em set in some evaporust that stuff works wonders and it cleans em up real good but. My favorite wadding polish to use is Eagle One "Nevr-dull" it comes with a cleaning/ polish agent soaked into it and really shines up whatever ur cleaning. Its great on a bunch of metals brass, chrome, steel and more.
@@theknifedoctor yea i don't use wire wheels neither nothing that tends to use power really just some elbow grease and no sand paper neither unless its like 800 grit but. Not telling u what to do just what i do with my knives.
I don’t repair knives for people. I’m sorry. Repairs don’t always go as planned and I don’t want to permanently damage someone’s sentimental knife. I’m hoping you could learn from me and repair them yourself. I hope you understand.
Hell knife doctor how are you doing sir I have a question for you how can I get scratches off blades I remember using something a few years ago some kind of oil when I worked in a grocery store and the produce used it to make the vegetable stands shine but I don't know we're I can get it is there any other ways to knock them scratches out of the park lol
Brother I knew when you found that knife. It was special because the day before. I was looking to buy one on eBay. When I seen you you in the video pick it up. I said let's see what tha book says. I couldn't wait to let you know. I didn't know if you knew it yet or not? When you said they are worth $100 all day long. I was like OMG! IT'S 4 TIMES THAT BUDDY! 😊😂❤ GREAT FIND KEVIN!✌🏻👍🏻😊
I Just love that bone it's a amazing knife. I read somewhere that those camilus fish knives were in millitary survival kit marked as survival fish knife I can't remember all it said

Vinegar is much h too abrasive. Avoid it!

Kevin what is the radio station you always have playing in the background in your shop? Sounds to me like permanent weather reports?
It’s the NOAA weather radio station.
NOAA Weather Radio broadcasts in the VHF public service band (between 162.400 and 162.550 megahertz (MHz)
I dont have many words for this find but i feel it found you same with guitars for me enjoy it brother 😊

No, but the new ones yes.

Found a Henkels Barlow recently. Tool box rescue. Needs work. Beautiful knife as is.
Awesome!!
Cool knife. Was there a specific task that sheeps foot blades were good for compared to others?
Great Question!! The sheepsfoot blade is commonly seen in sailing knives because it does make it hard to stab yourself while working with rope and such on board an unstable surface. It's also seen in rescue knives because you can slip it under seatbelts, clothing, etc without too much worry of cutting the person being restrained by same. With a lot of steel behind the tip of the knife, I imagine they are relatively strong, although you don't get a really pointy point.
That knife was made during the war when we had a brass and copper shortage realistically in the condition of the knife if you got a $200 offer that's fair, remember that the top $is for new never sharpen. But you did very well. 😊
It was made before the war. 1920-1940. It’s pre 1940.
I've always felt grinder wheels where to abrasive sometimes and can ruin the surface of certain metals. So i just use fine steel wool to polish up older knives or i will just let em set in some evaporust that stuff works wonders and it cleans em up real good but. My favorite wadding polish to use is Eagle One "Nevr-dull" it comes with a cleaning/ polish agent soaked into it and really shines up whatever ur cleaning. Its great on a bunch of metals brass, chrome, steel and more.
It’s not a stone I’m using. It’s a fiber wheel. Like an SOS pad.

Brother I knew when you found that knife. It was special because the day before. I was looking to buy one on eBay. When I seen you you in the video pick it up. I said let's see what tha book says. I couldn't wait to let you know. I didn't know if you knew it yet or not? When you said they are worth $100 all day long. I was like OMG! IT'S 4 TIMES THAT BUDDY! 😊😂❤ GREAT FIND KEVIN!✌🏻👍🏻😊
Newly subbed, very excited to have found you. Great efforts and workmanship 👍🏼

I Just love that bone it's a amazing knife. I read somewhere that those camilus fish knives were in millitary survival kit marked as survival fish knife I can't remember all it said
Just the black handle ones with bail
I’ll have to look! Thanks for sharing this!
Gorgeous knife Kevin. Enjoy my friend
Thank you!!
Thanks for the weather report
You’re welcome!!
A sonic bath might help get the dirt and debris out from around the rivets and other crevices.
I wondered if an ultrasonic might get that crud inside, too.
I've used a Popsicle stick wrapped in #1000 Wet or Dry paper with decent results...
Very nice, now I have to go dig out my Barlow knife....was my Grandfather's......looks a lot like that one
That's pretty cool!
What is the name of the reference book early in the video?? I see old knives around and that could come in handy , thanks man..cool vid!!!
