Restoring a Piece of History - Random Hands

- Опубликовано: 24 мар 2021
- At last! here is a restoration video after a long time just on public demand.
This is the most rusty cleaver I have ever restored, this antique butcher cleaver was send to us from Netherland by one of our supporter Stuw, his instagram @Stuwhoutje. He found it with the help of a metal detector. I did not make any big changes to this cleaver. I did not smoothen those big holes from corrosion and at the end I like that antique look of the cleaver.
Restoration:
First of all I removed thick layers of rust with gentle hammering then I choosen Electrolysis for removing deeper rust because it is a safer and non damaging way of removing rust. After many hours of electrolysis I simply do a sandblasting for a good looking surface.
Now time to Reshape it using belt sander and files While filing the surface I felt that it is still good tempered and ready to make the bevel I used a wet surface grinder to not destroy its temper. And after sanding now we have a razor sharp blade.
Next I tried a new way to give it a royal look and securing it from further corrosion.
Brass brushing: Simply we heat up cleaver with a gas torch and brush it with a brass wire brush using an angle grinder.
Now time to make its handle. I used brass, resin and wood to make its handle. After blackening and smoothening the wood and a gloss finish it looked good.
For its protection I made a leather cover. I used a wax hardened black leather
to make this fancy cover. And now it is ready to beautify the walls.

I was surprised how much metal was actually left. Looked like the whole thing would just crumble apart.
I know right
True
It gained the mass of the oxygen as it rusted, so it makes sense that it can look like it's losing a lot but still have plenty of material left to work with.
Same
I am off topic but sometimes he makes the handles look boring

@@marianomaza8941 never said he didn’t
Tools go brrrrrr
only hundreds of years of rust can create a finish like that, a truly one-of-a-kind piece.
@@liam4686 You can't really do that to steel. What's much easier is to just rust it quicker. If you want to reach this finish at scale you can afford a few weeks in a greatly oxidising environment to get around the same level of rusting.
or let your knife sitt in salt water for a month straight so get a similar effect
@@liam4686 it's more than just divots in the material. The whole piece came warped because of how much material was lost to rust. You might be able to replicate some features but it wouldn't look natural
@@liam4686 His point was how nature has its own way of art ...
It is a sheer pleasure to watch a craftsman and artist at work. Beautifully done!

First video I've seen of yours. I hit that like and subscribe. But i was wondering if u sell these after u restore them? If u do where can i go to purchase. This came out beautiful. Keep doing your thing. Ill be watching
I love watching restoration videos but Zyada khushi is baat ki hoi k hamary mulk mein b aisa content banaty lots of love and respect for you ♥️♥️
the result was beautiful, the only thing I would change is the round handle, I don't think any knife should have a handle like this because when cutting it can rotate the blade and cause a serious injury.
Putting that aside, I would love to have that cleaver, it´s just gorgeous
"I changed the wood due to color issue" proceeds to painting it black anyway
Lol you deserve more likes, Your point is absolutely correct 😂
Yeah, I think it was more likely he messed up because of a burl
Maybe the color wasn't sticking to the wood properly
Nobody gunna mention that he made a black schlong out of the wood?
Yeah as soon as he started making the handle that's when it went downhill. Not sure why he chose that design and colour...
I wouldn’t be surprised if this guy can make a machete from a chicken wing at this point
Use chicken nuggets instead
Don’t give him ideas. Lol
honestly me too
The creamy rust water sounds like a good dip for the chicken wing.
uhh that's kiwami Japan's job
Just super. The recovery is fire.
Thank you, it was nice and interesting to watch. Good luck!
I’m so happy that you kept the pitting. It keeps the history and I always thought it looked so cool. This turned out amazing.
It looks nice but not really hygienic to use, as food particles will accumulate in all the pitting. It would probably need a very light coat of epoxy to fill in all the pitting, imo.

The only guy who took wood handling class seriosly
When you first pulled that chunk of rust out, I thought this was gonna be one of your worst restorations so far.......but by the time you finished, it looks high end and absolutely beautiful. You killed it.
Killed it and reincarnated it! 🤓

“Turning tetanus incarnate into something useful” would have been an apt title as well.
Titanus
Tetanus is right
I make videos about graphic design
little known fact. tetanus isn´t caused by rust but dirt (or to be more precise, by the bacterial spores it contains)
"Zombie Cleaver" came to mind. There was more rust than cleaver there!
First of all this man is a phenomenal craftsman. Second, I love how he has god knows how many thousands of dollars worth of heavy machinery but still uses a handheld saw to chop the wood for the handle. Keep up the incredible work man!
You do know you could sell that to a museum. Not hating. Do love that you restored it to it's full glory,
This is one of the videos that brings the discussion about what restoration means.
It never ceases to amaze me how this man can touch such rusty metals without cringing or recoiling while keeping a steady hand
Why would touching rusty metal make you cringe or recoil?

Beautiful restoration love the casting of the metal its kept its history stunning hope you keep this item love the metal work of the handle and the copper carving very talented person ❤
Me at the beginning of the video-
"There is no way--"
In the End
Lol
🤣🤣😂😂 Man, I've watched near 200 videos with rust removal. This one here was a total blast. I'm subbing.
Just WOW.....very impressive. The brass finish grew on me.
Enough rust to hammer off in chunks. Okay, I have to see how this turns out!
That ended up as a seriously sexy looking knife.
I LOVE how you preserved as much of the original pitting as possible. That's a finish that only Mother Nature can create after a hundred years in the ground and it hurts to see guys grind that all off. Beautiful presentation piece, you did good.
The person who owned it thousands of years ago: *crying happily in heaven*
Love the ring that connects to the handle.
This restoration was the most satisfying restoration i have ever seen in my life
Love youuuuu💓💖💖💖
awsome as usual!!!
This brings to mind a medieval village where there would be a blacksmith, a carpenter, a tanner, etc, the village where this guy lived would just have him sitting under a sign that says "Yes."
gaaf man, hoe geweldig dit resultaat!
These hands deserve more than just a like. They have earned a subscriber! Amazing work!
Man, this is seriously so incredible. I am amazed by all of your techniques. I actually didn’t think that the gold would turn out at first, but you made it a masterpiece composition. Serious props.
Beautiful Restoration!! 👍👍
Observation: I was curious about the date of this artifact until they said the spine is still hard. If it were medieval, the edge would likely be hardened carbon steel with the rest of the mass of the blade being made of a less valuable form of steel or iron. So it's probably not as old as it looks, but was instead not well preserved. Honestly, anything more than 50 years old in good shape is a rarity.
no one:
this guy: AH THIS IS FINALLY SHARP ENOUGH TO SHAVE MY ARM :D
When this first started I thought “ bro just let that thing die” but after seeing how amazing that turned out I’m glad I stayed until the end
My thoughts exactly! This guy saw a diamond beneath that rust. His skills are other-worldly!
Absolutely amazing!
Beautiful. Well done. Darlington, South Carolina USA
