Antique 17th Century Pocket Knife Restoration
Ойын-сауық
Antique 17th century pocket knife and coins restoration. A rusty pocket knife and old coins were found in the same place. Coins of 1664. Therefore, we can conclude that the pocket knife is also from 1664. The knife was very rusty. I decided to restore the knife and coins. I removed the rust and cleaned the coins. I hope you liked my restoration.

This knife is not that old. 100% sure. The slipjoint didn’t become popular until the late 18th century. Before that it was mostly friction folding knives, but fixed blades were much more common. Just because it is found with some old coins doesn’t mean it’s from the same time.

I totally agree with you Lorbera ! Slijoints did not exist in the 17th century.

Slipjoints were invented in 1660 maybe not incredibly common until later but it's not out of the realm of possibility

In Jean-Jacques Perret's seminal 'The Art of the Cutler', pub.1771, the slipjoint mechanism is already popular.
Love it.
I think, you are using the coins to make the pocket knife to look older, than it is ! You did it once before, this is the second time and what happens two times, gives already a pattern!
That knife is just a piece of art, great job as usual!
The closing mechanism is much more modern. There's nothing like cleaning a 1600 coin with a wire brush.

Coins were found with a knife. I cleaned the coins with a plastic brush
I like the way you left the handle. It keeps it original and makes for a better grip.
Amazing ! Interesting historical work !
I don't know if the knife is that old, but it's cool to imagine it is. Great job!
You come across some of the coolest items to work on.

Cool, however if the coins were rare, you completely devalued them. Never, never clean / restore coins. You can take a coin worth thousands and reduce the value to zero. Always consult a numismatist before doing anything to coins. Otherwise fun to watch. 😊👍

This is positively amazing! Just imagine having this knife and these coins in your hands, as old as they are! I find it more than phenomenal that they even *exist* after all this time! I'm usually just blown away when you do something from the 1800s or very early 1900s, and now, I'm speechless. 😄 Thank you so much for sharing these marvelous pieces of the past. I'm glad it interests you and you find pleasure in bringing us such surprising things. By the way, FANTASTIC JOB!! Take care. Blessings.....💖

A basic scrubbing with mild soap and a good electrolysis bath will do the same as major museums do. When people break out the wire brush first I get worried.

I see you've switched over to some modern day tools. I think that is good to combine some of the new with the old ways. The shop was a good idea, but next time use a nylon brush. That is what they would use at the Museum.

If it is really old, I am not sure, that this is the correct way to conserve it. And if it isn’t…
Mooi gerestaureerd dit zakmes, zeker daar doe ik niets aan af. Maar 17de eeuw loopt vanaf 1601 tot 1700 ik schat dit zakmes jonger, rond 1860 op zijn vroegst denk ik zelfs, mening gebaseerd op de verregaande industrialisatie van de bouwwijze ( bijv. de vering) van dit mes.
What's that on the engine instead of a whetstone? Brush? Or a rubber circle?

The fact, that tey were found together, not necessarily means, that the pocket knife is also from 1664! I don't think, that the pocket knife is so old! I think, somebody found old things and stored them together! By the way-i'm archaeologist!
No debería haberse restaurado, solamente neutralizar el óxido y nada más. (Es mi humilde opinión).
Wow, this is a great video, thanks for posting. It's interesting to see that today's pocket-knife technology goes back 350+ years (at least)! Why the bluing? How old was that "iron rod"? The coins also turned out nicely.

Caro amigo, numa próxima oportunidade em que surgir outro canivete nessas condições, sugiro no lugar de passar o cold bluing, seja dado ao canivete um banho de ouro. O aspecto bem envelhecido, com as marcas da idade e brilhando com o fulgor e a beleza do ouro deverá ficar muito interessante. Grande abraço!

Cleaning old coins with a wirebrush. Jesus. That almost makes me cry. Just use citric acid in high concentrations for a few minutes and then neutralize in a baking soda solution. Clean with a soft toothbrush. If they are silver you can leave them as long as you like. If they are copper, half a minute max or they will turn red. .
🤣 that knife isn't anywhere near that old. You're not off by a decade, you're off by 250 years. 🤣🤣

Restoration? That was probably nothing more than a little derusting.
7:40 I cringed to death. You removed 99% of those coins' values. They're now ruined and full of micro-scratches. Patina is gone forever. Coins are cleaned with neutral soap and a toothbrush only, gently.
