I was blown away with this rare find! Antique ¨la trompette medaille d'or 1878 dufresne¨ french chef knife 7 1/2". It was made between 1870's-1890 in France. French chef knives, also known as "chef's knives" or "French knives," are a type of kitchen knife that is known for its versatility and durability used by professional chefs.
They are typically made with a high-quality steel blade that is sharp and resistant to corrosion. Same steel has been used for razor blades. At the same time the blade is rigid as a normal knife and flexible as a fish knife. Having this knife in hand is truly an amazing experience.

  • You are awesome my friend I love that you are using old school methods to prove that it still works my favorite part is the metal lathe that you made using a foot pedal driven that's an awesome design keep up the good work my friend you took a knife that most people would just throw out and made it look beautiful again

  • I am a fan and enjoy your hands on approach using vintage tools to give life back to the things you restore. I just stumbled upon another restorer you may be interested in seeing, Irene's Restoration. She restored a Soviet doll head that was broken apart and stained. It was made using paper-mache. Her workshop from which she mixed everything to restore and rebuild looked like an apothecary including a scale using weights. Her sewing machine was a vintage hand crank Singer and her level of skill was on par with your own.

The new wood handle came out great. I’ve actually made one handle without tools and I can tell you it wasn’t easy. I don’t know how you do it but my hats off to you for your efforts and end results are always amazing. Stay warm my friend! It’s been pretty good weather here in California. Can’t complain about 73f degrees. Congratulations on your 50k subscribers!! 🎉

I guess many years of repetition is paying off, it is not easy that is for sure. I am glad you are making your very own handles. That is inspiring to hear, thank you!

    • Yes, it is. Actually this knife should be pointed as any other chef knife but it seems that someone in the past changed the end of the blade. Round tip was common in before 1700's.

    • @@FFD_Restorations That makes sense. It is easy snap the tip off a chef knife if used to lever open a tin etc. I carefully reground a Sabatier knife to restore a point to it where that happened to me and I still use it every day twenty years later. I also noticed the grooves on the blade near the handle you pointed out and I suspect this knife eventually was thrown aside and used and abused as a knife for all sorts of rough jobs. So good to see it put in useable condition. I discovered that it is possible to buy old 'Trompette' knives on the internet quite cheaply, but they all need restoration.

  • Alright, that was something. You get major brownie points for being able to work with mahogany. That is NOT a soft wood. As far as that nick in the blade, it's possible that's where it sat in a knife block or sheath. It's in the right place for such a thing. Aside from vinegar, don't be afraid to use and reuse whatever your local flavor of evaporust style rust converter is. While it's not period correct for the kind of work you're doing here, no one is going to give you problems for it. It's one place I'd say that progress is definitely a good thing. Else, flour mixed with vinegar and water to make a paste is also useful when used with plastic wrap.

  • excellent work, pretty much the perfect restoration, back to fully functioning but keeping its history and character, wish all the other restorers would do as you do instead of destroying history, suspect the brass ring on the handle is a pretty old previous attempt at holding it together and love the fact you put that piece back again, all part of it's story. And been wondering if you would get a treadle lathe at some point and now you have, and looks to be a really good one as well, it fits in perfectly with your other tools, and you now have gone way past 50k subscribers, fully deserved achievement in itself, well done again my friend

    • Thank you kindly my friend, I try my best 😁. I think I spent the most time ever getting the handle right and it was so satisfying to see end result. Thank you for supporting my channel and sharing great tips all these years. I appreciate it! Glad to hear for lathe, I couldn't agree more 😉 Have a good one!

  • That is unusual find indeed if you never found it someone surely would have tossed it. P.s a little unknown fact for users of linseed oil, 1 2 or 3 applications isn’t enough if you fully intend on longevity, an old timer thought me to apply a coat daily for a week and after 2 coats a week for a month and then once a year after that also not to wipe off excess during the first week, we gotta pass this stuff on as to not be forgotten!

    • Thanks for pointing that out. I am actually aware of that ☺️ I read in old books that old knife masters were soaking wooden parts at least 3 times. Handle would be submerged for 24 hours straight in cooked linseed oil and dried for a week. Process could take up to a month. Most important is to saturate wood grain 😉
