I have a neurological problem that affects my hands and using power tools like drills, saws and belt sanders is quite dangerous. I am actually frightened to use them now as I have had a few minor accidents but I like maintaining my home myself and am quite good at it and take my time unlike the average tradesmen. My house is old and was built with hand tools so, I am aiming to invest in some good old fashioned hand power tools to replace my electric ones like the ones here. Very inspirational.
Hello. I'm from South Africa and I can tell you that a lot of what you see there isn't arcane or lost secret knowledge, but just good sense. In my country we've had serious problems with the national power grid for decades. Instead of fixing the problems, corrupt politicians embezzled funds and things got worse. Presently we have multiple 2-4 hour nation wide blackouts every day which often don't stick to any schedule. You can imagine the effect this had on our industries. Many South Africans just gave up, some adapted. Yes, his hand (and foot) powered tools make things quicker and easier, but I csn bed you this guy could have got to the same result with a knife, a few rusty nails, files and some sandpaper. It would've taken forever, but he'd get there. It's not his knowledge or fancy human-powered tools which get things done, it's his resolve to make a difference. grid-down scenarios aren't hypothetical, they are common in my country and possible to likely in yours. You can sit waiting for things to get better or make a plan...
I’m watching this in the uk and looking at all these belt driven tools reminds me so dearly of my grandfather’s workshop in the 70s. Thanks for this trip down memory lane and I think it’s so great you’re keeping these things alive!
That is so wonderful to hear sir! Thank you kindly for the feedback! I created this channel to honor our grandfather who did so much of hard work and never complained. Have a nice day ahead 🤗
Excellent restoration, and without electricity, without radios blaring away. Just a skilled artisan quietly working at his trade, without any noisy distraction. This is how I imagine serial killers prepare.😂
The shop just gets better and better over time. World class for it's uniqueness. I love all the hand and foot powered machines!! You even dress the part. Very impressive all around. Nice work on the knife as well.
Oh my, years I've played on RUclips, thousands of Restoration’s I've watched, but wow, I've finally come across your channel. What a stunning workshop you have, and what a skill set you have developed. I am so pleased you saved that hard worked knife, and in such a sympathetic way. Thank you for not destroying your video with a hideous overlaid music track. First video of yours I've seen and it's an instant sub. Just superb sir. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words mate! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed the workshop and the pedal-driven tools. Your encouragement means a lot to me. Is there a particular tool or aspect of the workshop that caught your interest the most? I'd love to hear more about your thoughts!
So many aspects to this restoration and presentation. The tools collected. The tools restored. The craftsman's knowledge and use of the tools. The actual restoration of the knife. Then to top it off the period presentation and excellent video recording and editing. Well done.
Wow, much appreciated 🙏 You have captured everything that I try to show in my videos, very well done 🤝 Thank you so much for the kind words and support! Stay safe!
A shop full of amazing old tools , must be wonderful to have access to so many vintage machines . That file though , wow never seen one like that ! Nice work
Refreshing to see someone use off grid tools to restore pieces of history and give them a new life! Guess with all the modern marvels of technology everyone has forgotten how power tools were used before everyone had access to electricity. I stumbled across your channel by chance and now i am a fan! Definite subscribe from me!
From 2$ to 200$ value for this knife, the tools used are really fantastic, only need the power of the user, tools from a time when we took the time to do a good job. Nice vidéo !
This is the definition of hand crafted excellence with only muscle powered tools . Stellar job on an 1878 La Trompette boning knife that should last another 145 years. Nice job Boris , thanks for showing an authentic hand restoration .
Very nice video, I worked in a machine shop in barre Vermont that still had belt feed machines . We’re all converted to run on electricity. But brought me back to that time working with that old equipment. Thank you.
Love this video. I love the fact that you did all of this without harsh chemicals, fancy electric tools and no overexplanation. My hat is off to you. There is a great deal we could all learn from you. Thank you.
a very impressive and sympathetic restoration of a very hard used knife, that knife has done much hard work and deserves your treatment of it, well done

There are a few people who take the and care to work as you do. When I first started watching you didn't see much of your shop. Some what surprised, nice.
Somebody evidently valued that inexpensive knife, and used it regularly. You've just made it into an inexpensive revived knife, with years more life in it. Nice one, Boris. Your patience with those cheap bolsters was exemplary. 👍
For sure it was a great knife to someone in the past and seeing it it was used that much i knew I had to save it. The memories that this knife created to its owner are more valuable for me than the knife itself.
This is amazing everything isn’t fancy like tools today you are a craftsman/restorer that takes pride in his work and rather do everything by hand and feet using 90% manual tools over electric power tools keep up the good work!
Благодарю мастера за отличную работу по восстановлению старинного ножа. Мастерская у вас супер! Добра Вам и удачи на канале. Ждём новых выпусков. 📹🔪⚒️👍🔥
Steel, brass and walnut and perfect oldschool craftsmanship… what can I expect more in a coffee break 👍🏻 Boris all details are perfect ; man powered tools, huge rasp, FDD knife holder 😅 and of course the magical sound of the work. The outcome is gorgeous as always. Thank you for your huge effort for serving us this high quality work and video.
If someone can understand the chemistry and satisfaction of using old tools and putting sousl and so much effort is definitely you my friend! You picked up all the details, well done! FFD knife holder made my good friend @TheGrantAlexander when we had a video collaboration. He did an epic job on it 👌 Thank you for kind words my friend 🥃 I was wondering about your cute pregnant cat, did you got new coworkers?

This is a man who is invaluable in a grid-down scenario. He's one of very few who has the tools and knowledge to keep things working.

He’d be lost without his fancy electric light.

There is not much left indeed 😂…. Lovely video though!
