Here in Italy during WWI, they had shortened the sabers by creating these daggers, used by the "Arditi" (great-grandparents of the current Incursori), they jumped the trench to engage in the hand-to-hand duel, they were trained in the use of this white weapon, they did not fear death , they faced fear with courage in honor of the homeland, for this reason they were so feared, their purpose of victory and honor, was all in sinking this dagger into the flesh of the enemy, therefore friend in your hands you have a piece of history that surely has killed many enemies, currently the current raiders of the Italian Navy and Army possess such sidearms, however the dagger is also supplied to other non-special corps.

That said it may be a modern repro, given the abuse and subsequent 'resto' there would be no patina after anyway. Just sad

Matias Lucena 28 de Agosto de 2022 já ativando o sino aqui do Brasil, eu fico maravilhado com pessoas como o criador deste ótimo canal se prontifica a a trazer de volta a relíquias do passado com muita competência e esmero, DEUS abençoe você e sua família e ganhou mais um inscrito.

Cool knife, but the beer fridges in the workshop are awesome! It’s amazing how being able to see what’s in the fridge increases the “cool” factor big time! 👍

@Awesome Restorations Hi! What solution did you soak the dagger in (& for how long) to build up the uniform, dirt-free oxidation?

I like your motto..."Don't forget to be awesome". You share it with John and Hank Green, a couple of American KZreadrs, known for their vlogs and the SciShow. The sentiment goes along with mine (borrowed from Bill & Ted)..."Be Excellent to each other". 😊

A beautiful piece, restored with precision and care. Very well done.

Ништяковый такой пескоструйщик, да и вообще, мастер. ) У нас на Руси таковых называли ремесленниками. Сильно уважали. Жаль. Что по земле, так мало их осталось. Но как говорится, из рода в род. Успехов тебе. Хорошая работа. )

We all (Hopefully) can tell that the knife is not a real antique but a weathered modern replica, but these videos still slap so hard and are so engaging. Tbh so glad he's not grinding down an antique.

This WW1 Trench dagger looks beautiful. You did the restauration extremly well.
