Hello folks! At the end of the new year, I bought this broken hunting knife at the flea market. The handle is made of a roe deer hoof. The video knife is homemade, but made of high-quality high-carbon steel. I have not had such a knife in the workshop yet - they are starting to restore the knife!
Firstly, I took the knife apart. The blade and bolster were placed in a rust remover. After cleaning, it was placed in water with soda to neutralize the acid. I sanded the knife by hand and made new bevels. The bolster was just cleaned up.
I did not change the handle of the knife, only cut off the broken part and drilled 1 hole for the pin. When gluing the handle, I used epoxy resin and a full pin.
Next, I moved on to creating a knife sheath. I used linden wood, the second part of the scabbard was made of leather, the suspension was also made of a leather cord.
As usual, I did a knife test, I hope you enjoy the restore video.
Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!
