Antique Pruning Saw Restoration - How To Make New Saw Teeth

This saw restoration was very challenging because I tried to keep as much of it as possible. The saw belongs to my father-in-law, and he says he has memories of this saw from the 60's .
As you can see, the saw is in a very bad condition. The blade is very rusty and has deep holes and the handle is simply destroyed. In this restoration I will show you how to restore the blade , no matter how destroyed it is and also how to make a new handle.
So I started the restoration. I disassembled the handle from the blade, I cleaned the dirt before blasting it, after which I sandblasted the blade. For a deep cleaning I did an electrolysis of the blade. In this restoration process, the blade needed some repairs. I had to restore his teeth, I had to remove his sharp and irregular edges, I had to repair the holes through which the new rivets will enter. The blade had deep pits, for this reason I could not sand it and bring it to a smooth and glossy shape. And so that the blade would not be exposed to rust quickly, I decided to apply a bluing solution. I know that a restoration means bringing the product back to the factory condition but that was the only solution to keep the blade in a decent shape.
After these stages the restoration of the saw continued by producing a new handle. I chose to use oak wood. I had a good piece of wood in the workshop, well dried, for more than 10 years. I tried to keep the shape of the old handle, in the smallest detail.
After which, the restoration continued by making new rivets. I chose to make the so-called "Chicago rivets". I saw those rivets made by My Mechanics and I can't wait to produce them too. It was challenging because it was the first time I did something like that, but I say they turned out well.
Towards the end of the restoration, I reassembled everything, sharpened the blade and finished the wood with oil. I also applied a layer of oil on the blade. My grandfather applied oil to all the tools, so they didn't rust anymore.
I have tried my best as I always do, to make the restoration easy for you to understand, but if you have questions about the restoration or anything else regarding the process or materials used in the restoration, just ask me and I will answer you all.
Thanks a lot for watching, I hope you liked the video!

Would filler be inappropriate to restore the flatness of the blade?

[@user-bf6pz6kj8f]

What is black devil?

[@CoolAgainRestoration]

Only welding can be done for a saw . No filler is allowed for fill the holes on knives,saws,cleavers,swords..

[@CoolAgainRestoration]

Black Devil is a bluing solution. Make the steel very dark compared with other bluing solutions.

[@AlvaroLucard]

How long did the entire restoration process take?

[@doniturner5077]

That was a great idea to put a different arch in the blade to replace the teeth never seen that done before. Glad to know it now thank you sir.

[@CoolAgainRestoration]

Glad you find this interesting doni 👍🏻🍻

[@SturleyArt]

The new rivets look incredible. Such a clever way to create them and then make them look seamless.

[@glengullickson6538]

My first thought was-"Really? How involved can this be?" Once again, I learned so much! Loved the method for making the new teeth.

[@OldThingsNeverDie-]

Awesome work on the new teeth. I told in my head " metal is missing so how he's gonna do them ? "
And you found the solution and made it perfectly.
The video is so clean, very good job, buddy 🤗😍👌

[@CoolAgainRestoration]

Thank you very much my friend ! I wait to see what nice video you make again 🤩 cheers and stay safe 🍻

[@ZombifiedWatermelon]

Gorgeous restoration. I think I commented to you before about this but gotta say it again, I love it how you let the pitting on the blade to show it's age. Too many guys would've tried to grind that off and destroyed a finish that took half a century to develope.

[@CoolAgainRestoration]

And a deep grind means a thick blade . Thanks a lot buddy 👌

Good ideas

[@Frostgnaw]

Holy cow, your ingenuity amazes me. I would have never thought you could actually restore the teeth and yet you did. I would've assumed you'd get a bladesmith/blacksmith to forge you a base and the cut from there.

[@CoolAgainRestoration]

Thank you very much Ricky. Yeah,was enough blade to make another line with new teeth . The sad thing was the fact that the blade was to thin and I can’t sand to a smooth surface. But I think looks good with the black blade and the oak handle.

[@Frostgnaw]

@@CoolAgainRestoration oh it looks great regardless. My brother has been watching Forged in Fire and I've gained a very small knowledge base on how to forge metal. It's a really interesting show, but yeah, thin steel is generally bad overall.

Hey! I love all your work, its so satisfying lol. Its inspired me to give this stuff a go. Ive found an old antique sewing machine in a cabinet on craigslist and was wondering if you had any advice or tips on restoring some of its parts? Or even advice on if it’s worth the trouble lol. Im not good at figuring out what’s valuable or not

[@CoolAgainRestoration]

Hi Madeline. If the product is not very rusty,it’s more valuable if you let it like that,just cleaning. A sewing machine is very hard to restore like new. Because has many components that are chromed ..
