Hello folks! Today I want to present to you a new restoration of the Caucasian dagger. They brought it to me from Kakheti (partially mountainous a region in Georgia). The dagger of the early 19th century, but someone tried to "restore" it is a few years ago, and we will soon find out and see "how". Well, I will try to restore it in my workshop! The first duty, I disassembled the dagger sheath. As I thought. The scabbard, the handle was all made not so long ago, and the most rude and terrible mistake is that someone removed the rust of an old dagger with a rough stone... I am more than sure that the stamp was lost in this way. But nothing can be changed. I will try to restore what is left. I cleaned the blade and the accessories of the scabbard with a rust remover. Furthermore, I kept the old leather suspension and what the "scabbard" was wrapped with — it may be useful in the following restoration or renovation projects. After that, I washed everything, dried it and began to clean it with sandpaper. The blade was sanded with sandpaper from 80 to 360 grit. I made the handle for the dagger from beech, the accessories of the handle are steel, I applied with the help of stichels. Steel rivets. The sheath for the dagger I made of wood, pasted with natural thin leather. I managed to adjust the steel suspension to fit the new scabbard, but there is no tip. It turned out to be rotten and very thin, and the biggest problem was that it was soldered with brass, and it was not possible to give a new shape. I made a new scabbard tip also made of steel and everything went well. As usual, I conducted a small dagger test. I hope you enjoy this restoration video. Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention! Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!
