BROKEN Old SCOUT Knife Restoration | AWESOME Recovery

Restoration of Broken Old SCOUT knife. It is in very worn condition with a broken handle, guard is bent and blunt blade. This scout knife is designed to be used by kids as a first knife. In this video I will make a new handle, grind and polish the blade and at the end assemble it.
About The Old Scout Knife
This small scout knife is specially designed for children as a first-time knife. With finger stops on both sides of the shaft, small hands will not slip over to the blade when nailing. The length of the knife blade is 3.3 in (8.5 cm). The total length of the knife is 7.1 in (18 cm). The tip of the blade is purposely oval for safety reasons. I believe this could be an old Mora scout knife but it is hard to tell since the markings on the blade are missing. There are several producers of scout knives here in Scandinavia like Mora, Øyo, Helle, Brusletto … They are fairly common here in Norway and it was not hard to find one to restore.
The Restoration Process
I started by dismantling the scout knife. I removed the broken handle and all parts from the blade. To remove scratches, rust , pitting and dirt from the blade I used a hand crank grinder, sand paper and I polished the scout blade afterwards.
In this video I made a new handle for this scout knife from walnut wood because it would be quite difficult to repair an old broken handle. I cut the piece in desired length and with a chisel, plane, carving knife I made a rough shape. Fines shaping I did with rasp and sandpaper.
I drilled the handle for the scout blade and with heat I managed to fit the blade in the new handle. Guard and bolster I cleaned on a steel wire wheel and did a hot brass transfer. It got a nice gold-ish look.
Last but not least, I assembled the scout knife. To secure the blade I haven’t used a rusty iron washer, instead I used a new brass washer. It looks much better in my opinion.

    I think you are probably one of the best if not the best restoration channels on KZread. I love your work and the attention to detail is second to none. I will say though and I’ve said it before the videos when you have no music are so much better. The music is so distracting and sounds like an old 80s porn video. It’s an instant click off when I hear the loud and annoying music.

    I appreciate your feedback Greig, thank you. I understand your frustration and your point of view. Here is why I started adding music again in my videos. After making over 100 videos on KZread platform and doing an extensive statistics comparison from KZread analytics between videos with music and without, videos with music performing way way better. I am talking about huge differences, in perspective videos without music get a few hundred views and with music a few thousands for the same time period... I wish one day KZread gives control to the viewer to turn off music and watch natural sound and for those who like music can turn on.

    I stumbled on your channel after obtaining an old Sheffield style scout knife like the one my Dad had back in the 50s (missing any stamps which might tell me more). You've taught me some invaluable tricks for getting the dull, pitted blade which was worn into a very wavy shape through decades of sharpening back into working, paper cutting order. Though I didn't go all the way to polishing it up to a mirror finish and I did cheat a little and use a dremel instead of just elbow grease to reshape the blade I now have a knife I can use every day instead of a blunt conversation piece.
