Antique Meat Cleaver Restoration - 105 Years old
Restoration of a huge antique meat cleaver from Italy. See this 100 years old and very raw butcher tool getting restored into a real beauty.
THE RESTORATION PROCESS
I disassembled the shaft from the cleaver blade and welded the pin holes together. I sandblasted the back side and heated the metal to get the blade straight. Then a full annealing process at 879 degrees Celsius to reduce the hardness and internal stress in the metal of this meat cleaver. I grinded a new cutting edge in a 30-degree one side angle. After that I heat treated the metal and gained a 60-62 HCR (Rockwell hardness scale)
I did etch the cleaver on both sides and created a beautiful new handle of an old piece of hickory wood. I finish the project with a nice little laser engraving and some very cool decorations.

Best wishes and stay safe ❤ Martin

I love how you restored it to a point where it’s in way better shape than what it was but it’s still got that used look like it’s been through a lot.. as if it was used for years and years and is still holding up. You didn’t use any bonding to fill the imperfections or cracks and you didn’t polish the whole thing like you see everyone else doing. It looks good! Something unique in a way
