WW1 - Restoration of bayonet, turning a rusty relic into a piece of history

Рет қаралды 172,401

Жыл бұрын

Hello,
The bayonet, is a bladed weapon that attaches to a rifle barrel for close combat like a spear. Is believed to have been invented by 17th-century peasants from Bayonne who used their hunting knives as makeshift spears due to lack of ammunition. The US 1917 bayonet was manufactured by Remington (2 million copies) and Winchester (500,000 copies) from 1917. It was used by American troops during World War I, with 65% of rifles being US Model 1917s. It was also compatible with "Trench Gun" type pump-action shotguns. These bayonets were used by the United States during World War II and the Korean War due to their availability in large stocks.
I practice the restoration of objects in poor condition. This is a passion, so it is not my profession. Just enjoy the video.
GOOD VIEWING !! :)

That was such an outstanding video. Not only was it awesome and historic to see such a piece brought back to life, but "French Restore" has demonstrated a very entertaining and high level of video production. I loved the music and the ending of this video, introducing the next mission was iconic!! Thank you Sir!! great video my friend!

I carried bayonets for the M1 Garand and the M14 Rifle and the 12- gauge pump shotgun. While serving in the US Army infantry. mostly we used them to help us open C rations. and cut roots while digging foxholes.

This bayonet is NOT an M1917 bayonet, which was used for the M1917 Enfield, it is an M1905 Bayonet that was used on the M1903 Springfield Rifle, as well as the later M1 Garand Rifle. Still, a nice restoration.

You just took all of the value out of the Bayonet it was painful to watch.😢 If you want to drill Bayonet, now you got one. If you want to restore, you could have lightly Bead blasted and Parkerized Like factoring😊 I love hearing blood on the risers, though👍

It is a model 1905 Springfield Armory made in 1917 so it could have originally had a shiny blade, but hey began bluing and Parkerizing in 1917. Pre 1917 the blades where raw and they began just dip bluing the old production raw blades. Rock Island and Springfield made the 1905's and Winchester made some bayonets for the 1917 Enfield. Looks nice and glad you restored it. I do not have an SA yet, but I have a nice 1909 RIA, and a mediocre Remington 1917 Enfield. They are expensive to collect.

Restaurar no es lo mismo que renovar. Al realizar una restauración es primordial conservar lo que los restauradores llamamos "pátina", ya que en ella reside una gran parte del valor histórico de la pieza. Lamentablemente en este caso la pátina ha sido retirada completamente.

I have seen lots of relic condition bayonets with decades of neglect, this bayonet is not in a relic condition. I have the impression that this bayonet had been deliberately rusted recently. There are signs at the start of the video that the quality of the bayonet is still very good and the rusting is uneven. I find this kind of restorations silly because they just sand and buff the metal shiny and call it restoration.

Splendid job indeed. Just two remarks if I may : there is no need to sharpen the bayonet, it's not a knife made for cutting, it's above all a thrusting weapon. You should also have blued the handle of the bayonet, the 1905 had this kind of finish, though from 1917 onwards many were totally blued. Next job for you, make a WW1 scabbard... not easy but feasible. When I found my first 1905, I made one just like the original, in wood covered with leather, covered then by a canvas sheath. Try and make us see what you did !

I use a 12V battery charger, and was surprised he took a wire wheel to it after electrolysis. That's why I use it so I don't abrade any metal. I did an entire 1888 German Commission rifle that the bolt was completely rusted solid, and red with rust. After about 6 hours I opened the bolt by hand and pulled every screw. Its the way to go.

Recently my Mom had given my Sun at 1 of these which belonged to my father's grandfather. I don't know if it's the exact same model because I believe his was made closer to 1903 or something I know I will be doing more research Watching this video. I had people say don't Oh I should shut up Restore it, it will loose value. I don't know What to do but Use it as a display piece In a shadow box containing the flag and cartridges from Grandfathers funeral and migrants on the same sides funeral. My son's being at his dull And tarnished. The leather scabbard Is dried out Discolored And had to be super glue as the tip Started to Rip while returning the sword to its sheath. I did my best to inject super glue into the leather. My son is a huge fan of Military campaigns and equipment. After we thought everything on my father's had been gone through stumble Across this bay nap was special.

you haven't turned a rusty relic into a piece of history, you have removed all traces of it's history and story by doing that amount of work to it, to restore it you should just clean it and make it functional, and it should have a blued finish or be parkerised so as it doesn't shine and give away the position or attract attention to the soldier wielding it, also by sharpening it you have changed it, new they were not sharp and the army didn't expect them to be as they were a stabbing weapon, having said that some were sharpened by the troops carrying them but by sharpening it you have changed it and removed part of it's story and authentic history, yes you have done a good job of the work you have put in but it isn't the right way to do it, suggest a bit of research before working on historic articles as there are many that destroy them on the net and few who restore them properly

I mean yeah, it looks good but it's an historically unaccuracy. Bayonets were not sharpened since their main use was stabbing. Also That shine reflection you put on it is not how bayonets looked back then since they were all blued to reduce sunshine reflection so that soldiers were not so exposed to the enemies (understand it as some sort of camouflage if that makes sense). In general, you made such a nice job! Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!
