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.

    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. 😊👍

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.....💖

    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. .

    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.

    )))) the brush I used with soft plastic bristles. Copper is a hard metal and the field of the coin is non-uniform, so there will be no scratches even when enlarged. Only dirt is removed with a brush and soap.

    @@ReXtorer Yay! Better now. (Despite, I'm a chemist and copper is definitely not a hard metal. Take care still!). Aside from that, I loved the restoration and I would buy a knife like this for sure!

    Like many other video posters, this person has left this modern item in a place or substance that would age it, and has made up a silly story just to make you - and silly me - click on it
