    Impressive restoration. The reason that the old scales were cracked is because they were old wood and were not ''oiled'' to keep from shrinking. All knives and other kitchen tools with wooden handles need to be treated with ''block oil'', like you did. And never, ever put them in the dishwasher!!! Wash and hand dry then re-oil every week or so. Retired chef with very expensive cutlery. Always treated with care. Still looking great after thirty years...

    The knife turned out beautiful. You did a wonderful job of bringing it back to a useful tool again. I don’t quite understand your early comment that your friend owned this knife and loved to use it, but wanted you to restore it. That knife looked like it hadn’t been used for a long, long, long time.
    With that much rust on the blade and inside the handle area, I would have NEVER used that knife around any food. Why is it then that this is her favorite knife to use?Just wondering.

    • @FixitRestoreit
      @FixitRestoreit  4 года назад +1

    Funny I’m seeing comments basically saying “where is the rest of that knife?” Anyone that fishes knows that the fillet knife usually ends up smaller than your pinky after years of use and it’s best used that way for filleting. Annnnnnnnd speaking of which, where’s the fish you should be filleting with it hmmmm? Nah, I’m just pulling your pollock because regardless that’s a beautiful job! I’ve had the same filet knife on my salt water gear belt since I was a young lad at six. My Dad gave me it on my first deep sea trip and it’s only taken a lil love to keep it kept clean n razor sharp for 51 years now. Sure it’s shrunk a wee bit but there’s nothing like using the same knife for decades, especially when I go out deep-sea fishing on a party boat in Gloucester Massachusetts and see the same people year after year and they say “you still got that thing”. They don’t remember me but they remember that knife LOL! Hell yeah, and I’m not about to give it up yet either, the mates want a dollar a fish to clean them for you PLUS a tip! I think damn near a hundred for the trip is quite enough thank you anyway. I go out twice a year and stock my freezer with cod, haddock, pollock, redfish and the occasional halibut, ALL filleted with this knife😉
    I give this 👍🏼👍🏼 thanks for sharing.

    The fillet knife is fine, you did an honest good job. As for the welding, I don't think it was all that necessary, the 2 part epoxy resin, hard wood scales and pins would more than compensate for handle strength especially for light duty knife.
    As for welding, in the future, stick the knife blade all the way through an apple or a potato right up to the area being welded, this will stop any heat from transferring to the blade that will affect its hardness and it will also protect from weld splatter.
    One more piece of advice,
    I would close up the gaps in your work bench, not good for doing restorations on with small intricate parts that are hard to get or irreplaceable especially working on a gas carburetor . It would also be a lot easier to keep clean and it would stop rust and dirt from falling between the boards below.

    You have the ability to weld up rust holes under a handle, why would you ask if it is worth restoring? Funny thing with people restoring knives, and hatchets, and things with a handle they never seem to use a lot of rust prevention teqnichues under the handle, they just epoxy a handle on and call it good.

    worth saving? well... that's often a conundrum. Frankly, for a favorite knife she sure didn't take care of it worth a damn. Looks to me like it was a much wider blade originally, and she let somebody grind it down on a bench grinder "sharpening" it I presume is what they thought they were doing. It was kinda worth saving just to watch you work though. Welding it up is about all you could have done. I'm pickier though I would have welded up every tiny thing until the handle was whole again, but I'd probably have to re heat treat it as well.
