It’s crazy how much comfort I got from listening to the weather radio. Brings back memories of my Poppa, who’s recently passed away. He always carried an old timer, then a Winchester after he broke the old timer.

You can chemicly remove a lot of rust on old knives with vinegar this way you don't have to use scrapers and abrasives so much and take a chance of damaging them. I have cleaned up a number of old knives with vinegar and a plastic cleaning brush. Sometimes I use a metal polish with a sonic toothbrush too. Weenol and an old Sonicare tooth brush works great.

It does my heart good to see you honor that old Case Barlow the best way a guy possibly can - with pocket time. That's what it was made for. : )

That Case Tested might be one of if not the best knife I have seen you find! And $5, can’t beat that! Cleaned up good too! Good Job Doc!

Beautiful knives! Very satisfying to bring back old knives. Golden age of American made pocket knives

Well done. It's sometimes sad to see how the good old things are neglected or even thrown away - and it's so gratifying to rescue them and bring them back to life. My oldest knife is from around 1890 and was used as a sidepocket knife in a Bavarian Lederhose. Only yesterday I rescued old brass handles (around 1900) from doors somebody threw out during a renovation. The doors themselves were done and I have a couple of beautiful wooden ones at home for my own renovation project.

I(we) do estate and garage sales and often see old knives. I never realized some can be worth a lot. Thanks

I love a Barlow. That's quite a find. Beautiful restoration job.

The Camillus fishing knife is a gem... 💎 😊

That case is a treasure and both knives cleaned up awesome enjoy them stay sharp Kevin

Amazing find and wow the way that old pocket knife turned out after a little tlc is so awesome. Love giving something that is useless new meaning to be continued to enjoy.

Congratulations on that wonderful find. And another great restore in it. That fish knife is a real beauty also.

what a joy! would love for you to see some of my oldies. love that you shared this.

A Case knife is money in the bank. Thanks Doctor

Bone makes some Beautiful handles.I just purchased a New CASE XX CS Blades Large Stockman with Amber Bone handles last week and it’s a real beauty.I’m not usually a fan of any knife with more than 2 blades but it was so beautiful that I purchased it and I now carry it along with a large Trapper and a Sodbuster Jr.👍❤️🇺🇸

Both great looking knives, but the bone on that Barlow is just beautiful

What great finds! That Barlow is awesome.

What a find. 😮

This guy should be named the knife ruiner

Heck of a find!! Masterful job restoring it also. I totally agree with you too. I wouldn't have polished the bolsters anymore either. That really small amount of pitting is what an 80-100 yr old knife is supposed to look like. Well done sir!!! Im so glad youre going to carry it too. Have a good one. Thanks for the videos, as always. 🙏

Beautiful old case knife Kevin. Cleaned up nice! Books like that give you a reference to go by, but the reality is in the market of Case knife collecting,the Real serious collectors are very experienced and only lay down top cash for Mint examples. They can tell if the blade has even the slightest sharpening done etc. that being said.-There are knife guys like myself that don’t particularly seek out the Mint stuff. I prefer old valuable folders that are in the 80% -95% condition. To me they have that mojo! Your Awesome old Barlow’ there is what I prefer in a Classic pocket knife. When they’re Mint you don’t carry them and you gotta fuss to keep them polished. I don’t blame you for saying hey!!! I wouldn’t take less than $400. That old workhorse Barlow you saved from the Box means more because of its circumstance and love you put into it! You go to a knife show and lay down $475 for a Mint one in some guys glass - will not mean the same to your Heart and Soul. Enjoy that beautiful old Barlow. I scored on a beautiful old Case tested green bone Jack 2 months ago for $14 . Not mint - probably 90% and that’s the way I like em! God Bless

Beautiful knives! You did a bang up job on them! That Barlow is phenomenal! Great video! Thanks for sharing it with us!!

Amazing finds Kevin. They are awesome. You will have a tough time ever finding two better than that. You never know, could be one flea market away. lol

That barlow is stunning!! Love it!

Amazing 😮, you scored a grand slam, DOC !!! Blessed from above, amen. Great video 😀 Semper Fi, Marine...

Awesome find! ❤ Did some great work brining them back. Love that Camillus too.

Absolutely beautiful knives! I’m so glad for your find. Both in such great condition. 😊👍

Awesome video. Congrats on an EPIC vintage Case find. Definitely one to pass down as a family heirloom.

Beautiful blades and a great restoration. Thanks for bringing us along.

I HAVE ONE OF THOSE SCHRADE HUNTERS 110h is the model. My dad found one in an old truck when he worked at the scrapyard. Cleaned it and sharpened it, one of the best knives i own

Good eye on finding that case!!! You did it right putting it back in service!!

An absolutely unbelievable find!! Fantastic work bringing it back as well!

Those knives came out Slick!! Great finds!!

Beautiful work. That Case is one awesome looking knife. Great job giving it a refresh. The bolsters and that bone handle give it some distinction the way you left them.

Congratulations Doc. great find!!!!!

That Barlow looks Awesome…what a great find!

Beautiful Case Barlow. I have a Parker Edwards razor trapper that I pocket carried for 33 years now. Made in Alabama I love USA knives.

Both great knives.

Great find and great restoration. Enjoyed the video on this rainy day

Amazing find!❤️❤️❤️ That’s Awesome!👍

Great video! Thanks for sharing

Outstanding score Doc.💯🏆💲💰❤️👍

knocking him down when you know your on a winner

Any time steel has been stamped, if you can heat the steel until it discolors from the heat, even if the stamping has been sanded or polished off, the stamping will reappear. It will discolor a slightly different color from the heat treatment.

such an amazing find

Nice knife to hand down. Good find.

Beautiful job doc

I'm jealous! Lol. What a find

Great looking knives, I love that jigging on the fish knife. Congratulations on the finds.

I need a barlow right now in my pocket . What a beauty that Case. Big like from the south of Spain. Stay sharp Doc.

Hey Kevin you done an amazing restoration on both of those knives! The saw cut bone on the Case looks awesome!

Brother I knew when you found that knife. It was special because the day before. I was looking to buy one on eBay. When I seen you you in the video pick it up. I said let's see what tha book says. I couldn't wait to let you know. I didn't know if you knew it yet or not? When you said they are worth $100 all day long. I was like OMG! IT'S 4 TIMES THAT BUDDY! 😊😂❤ GREAT FIND KEVIN!✌🏻👍🏻😊

Very nice job 👍🤓👍

Great finds!

Love the case barlow .beautiful knife .I want to start going to my local flee market

Amazing find

Beautiful job. A knife for life.

That was an awesome video. Two fantastic knives. Congrats on that great find.

Gorgeous knife Kevin. Enjoy my friend

Awesome finds!

Thanks for saving it 🙌🏻

Great find!

Good job on them two

Epic find!!!!

That’s a beautiful case. U got a good deal, those guys at the market will look closer next time. Great find. It went to the right place, enjoy

That knife was made during the war when we had a brass and copper shortage realistically in the condition of the knife if you got a $200 offer that's fair, remember that the top $is for new never sharpen. But you did very well. 😊

Beautiful knifes 👍

Very nice looking knives!

Nice to see a video of yours going viral! Well deserved my friend. Cheers! Zip~

Well, it's very rare I sub a page after only one video and I confess I didn't have high hopes going in being doubtful a $5 knife could be worth so much but I'm wrong. The Case is exquisite. Excuse me, I have a channel to sub. I love that "sometimes you just have to let an old knife be an old knife"

Good looking knives

Doc you no doubt outdid yourself on this hunt! 2 grails in1 weekend! Be on lookout for the Old Timer grail, 2 ot made in59

Very nice buy beautiful knife

The Barlow is one of my favorite patterns. If you wanted to give it to me, I would not turn it down. lol.... The folding hunter is my other favorite pattern. Great find! It cleaned up good.

Cool video thumbs up as always.

That's a really cool find.

Great video brother!

Very interesting. Things I didn't know, but am glad I happened across them. Makes me wish you were a neighbor. It'd be fun to see you drop by and play in my shop. I have cabinet (filtered air) buffers, a four wheel, variable speed grinder, several Dremel like tools (Foredom, RAM, dental (400,000 RPM) grinders and a chest full of bits. It'd give me a chance to learn a few more things.

I recognized the Barlow knife immediately. I had one when I was a kid. Not sure if it had a bone handle. Thanks for the vid.

Nice finds

Hey, ain't that a beautiful bone y'all? That's what she said. Love it, I have some old knives from a old man. I think you have inspired me. Thank you. I'm gonna go knock the dust off them old things..yeah she never did say that.😂

I totally agree that Barlow has been round the block and now it's going to be appreciated let it be old and graceful got one just the same come down the family over 100 years old and it nose is position what is telling you don't fix that don't want fixing that's what mine tells me anyway thumbs up but I suppose a little bit of spit and Polish doesn't hurt

Love to see u make a knife collection video see all the knives u collected

Wow just Wow

Found a Henkels Barlow recently. Tool box rescue. Needs work. Beautiful knife as is.

Sweet!

The background of the story is the country side in the north-east of the Netherlands, somewhere in the 20's or 30's, when land workers were traveling from farm to farm to find work and earn some money. Here it is (I had to translate it from a dialact which is spoken in the north-east of the Netherlands and English is not my first language, so there will probably be spelling and grammar errors): On the other side of the bridge over the ditch stood a dog, a Dobermann, snarling and barking. Through my 8 year old eyes it looked like a monster. "Come, walk on!", my father said and he stepped upon the bridge. I followed him, with my eyes closed. The dog snarled and growled even harder and slowly walked upon the bridge, towards us. He was ready to jump. I quickly closed my eyes again. Suddenly I heard a splash. I opened my eyes and was afraid that my father fell into the water. But he stood there on the bridge and I saw him closing his knife, his razor sharp Herder, and put it back into his pocket. Beneath, in the ditch I saw the dead dog drifting. The water around it got red. Then I saw and heard the farmer, he was shouting and ran towards us. When he stood in front of my father he shouted: "What did you do with my dog?!" There was a moment of silence and then my father replied: "I'm here to get my salary for the past week." My father had worked the whole week at this farm to harvest potatoes. He continued: "And who thinks I will not get my earned salary, will also disappear in the ditch." My father had his eyes fixed on the farmer and the farmer turned pale. Then he turned and walked back to his farm. We followed him and in the kitchen my father got his salary. "There will be no work for you here anymore", the farmer said. I saw on the look of my fathers face that he didn't even want to work at this farm anymore. When my father died forty years later, my brothers and sisters had to divide the things he left. I wanted only one thing: his last Friedrich Herder knife, which now lays on the bottom of a copper box

If those knives would have been cleaned up as good as you cleaned them they would have been worth so much more in price. I love them ,You were lucky to find them..

I've always felt grinder wheels where to abrasive sometimes and can ruin the surface of certain metals. So i just use fine steel wool to polish up older knives or i will just let em set in some evaporust that stuff works wonders and it cleans em up real good but. My favorite wadding polish to use is Eagle One "Nevr-dull" it comes with a cleaning/ polish agent soaked into it and really shines up whatever ur cleaning. Its great on a bunch of metals brass, chrome, steel and more.

I Just love that bone it's a amazing knife. I read somewhere that those camilus fish knives were in millitary survival kit marked as survival fish knife I can't remember all it said

I use Dremel buffer end with glitz to shine any metal

I laughed when you dickered on the price lol Glad he didn’t change his mind when he was going thro them in front of you

Thanks for your service and god bless Like your show. I got to talk my wife into being a bird dog to. Lol

Beauty

Great find!! I found one just like it at a flea market for $60, cleaned her up and I’ve turned down $300 offers on it.

If I understood correctly it is mostly sunny, some clouds and in the sixties. Nice.

Nice!!

Could you maybe do a tutorial video, on what to look for when knife hunting, and maybe how to fix em up?

Wow, beautiful! Gives me a new appreciation for these old knives. Can you tell me the difference between "Tested" and "XX"?
