Any of you all watch Curse of Oak Island on the History Channel? I would put the whole bucket on ebay and call it bobby dazzlers found metal detecting in the money pit 90 foot deep. Probably dropped by the Knights Templers. Should get some real bids dog!! That show is on its 10th season and that looks like what they find every week.
....
Come to think of it
there was something a little strange in the bottom of that bucket...
let me see if I can attach a photo of it...

Well, that's looking better, Dog.
Perhaps it will survive after all your TLC!

Certainly more interesting than most of the stuff they usually have on there!

Never heard of the “NTARI” brand, do you think it’s foreign made?

Just kidding, of course…

True, but now you have experience bringing the sorriest looking bowie knife ever back to life.
I'll bet half the people who shop at Amazon wouldn't have any idea of where to even begin restoring that abomination.
But, the finished product will tell for sure!

Yep M.M.
I like cleaning old knives and tools. I think about how this item was useful to someone in the past and how it can be useful to somebody in the future...

Sounds like great motivation for you, Dog.

"Lazy bones" you say, absolutely!

Here is the tub with the tools that were in the inside bucket that the knife was in, after soaking under a few gallons of vinegar... that foam is the chemical reaction of the rust "blowing off" so to speak...

Once the hammer heads have been fitted with new handles, everything will be ready to work again. Great job on the clean-up!

Thanks Dan
I got some brand new handles that I got at a Flea market for $1.00 a piece
