WW2 German Bayonet Transformation 

I thought there couldn't be a better video of the restoration of a WW2 French sword (24 million views). But you've outdone yourself! Unbelievable, just unbelievable!

My favorite restoration channel is finally back.

My 7 year old and I look very your videos. He is on the autism spectrum and recently told me.he wants to fix old metal things. So we found an old rusty pipe wrench in our garage and we have started to slowly restore it. So far a good vinegar soak and some scrubbing with a wire brush. Hoping to work with him on it more this week. It's been great finding an interest he has through watching your channel and has given us another way to connect with him. ❤

The metal isn't turning white; it's turning the color of bare metal. It appears brighter because you see the contrast between the freshly sandblasted portions and the raw, rust pitted portions. Also, the deformations and crevices in the metal allow the grit to scour tiny scratches all over but it's not smooth enough to achieve a mirror polish so what you're left with is metal that's clean enough to reflect light evenly but not smooth enough to reflect it perfectly, if that makes sense. It happens with any metal item that's sandblasted. Of course, the media that is used also makes a difference.

I’m convinced this dude can bring back my dead grandma

He's back, and I hope he's here to stay because this is a good channel

The combination of rust pits, gold, and carbon fiber on the handle creates a stunning decorative piece that would look great on any shelf.

Thank you for coming back you have been missed.

Everytime at the start of a restoration I think to myself. How do you even plan on fixing this? This is so beyond repair.

At first, I thought the whole thing would end up in your rust jar. A work of art, it turned out beautifully.

Tysy was like, "Time to give shape to the blade" and I'm like, "What shape? What blade??" And it still came out looking amazing

Didn't believe at the begining that you'll be able to restore it .... very well done!

Wow 🤩 you just gave me an idea how to make one of my next project 😍 very nice finish Tysy ❤️❤️❤️

YOU'RE BACK!!!! Sir, you were missed, seriously Also, as soon as I saw how crunchy that bayonet was with rust, I started clapping and screaming DUST RUST FOR THE KNIFE YESSSS

I said to myself, "self, why would he restore that piece of crap"? Less than 17 minutes later, "because he can"! What a beautiful piece!

At least you finally learned how to differentiate between a knife and a bayonet in the end tysy 😂

Dude the fact that you turned something so beyond repair into something that is not only beautiful but incredibly functional???? That's beyond incredible 👏🏻🔥🖤 love your work so much

That gold effect turned out amazing!

Besides the obvious expert craftsmanship, I am always stunned by the creativity of these works of art… how people get a picture in their mind of what COULD be versus what is.

This video was well worthy the 4 month wait. One of my favourite restoration channel is back with new gadgets. First time I am seeing a magnetic stirrer. Much love from Rwanda 🇷🇼

Recently I was talking to a friend of mine about most satisfying RU-vid channels and yours came to mind. Turns out my mate is also subscribed to your channel! Shout out to Fré for having good taste too! Btw, thanks for being back, missed your craftsmanship! Keep up the good work!

the slice test at the end was way better than expected!

Amazing work of art, and more effective as a cutting tool than I expected!

The bayonet now has +10 damage against goblins. Excellent video.

That looks absolutely beautiful! I knew you'd be able to make that old blade shine again. Very well done.

Wow, that looked impossible to restore, and yet you turned it into art! Not only does that take mad skillz, but it also takes creativity and vision. Great work!

bro had nothing left to restore and still restored it. respect

I'm glad you said transformation and not restoration. I was really impressed with the videography rather than the project itself.

when i tell you that your restorations are the only ones i truly enjoy i mean it. so glad you uploaded

Outstanding and creative approach by incorporating the deep pitying as a feature. And I've never seen the gold effect like that before. Beautiful!

He’s back my favorite restoring change is finely back I missed it so much

The end result is amazing!! I watch your videos because they are relaxing, but can't fall asleep to them - I'd miss the end result!!!

Not going to lie, I actually thought this was going to be the knife made from rust!!! But the jar is half full!!! Awesome job!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

this is well tuned. Insane result. I like when people turn rust into gold. That's part of my job also in restoring laptops and give them second hand life. Happy to see the channel back with a new video

This should get a million views easily. Absolute masterpiece. Congratulations, my friend.

My 10 years old son always fall slept with your videos. We like all of your videos 😊 They are very relaxing.

How to transform a piece of rust into a true work of art, really really impressive and really really cool 🤩👍

Outstanding work, wasn't sure you'd be able to turn that rusty hunk of metal into anything at all - very impressive!

I have to admit that I wasn't going to watch this, thinking it was too far gone to be interesting... But I also have to admit that this was great! I'm so glad I did watch it!!!

Do I find your video relaxing to help me sleep? No. Do I find the them to be educational? Yes.

I'm speechless! simply amazing. cool gold plating technique that i have not seen before. LOVED IT!!!

Turning the pitting into an aesthetic choice for a display piece is a fascinating choice

This is one of the coolest knife restorations you ever done ❤ and yes your videos are so calming and relaxing, they do lull me to sleep 💤

Watching your videos is honestly a breath of fresh air. No annoying music, gets straight to the point, and is overall calming. Keep it up 👍

This restoration was very impresive and satisfying and i never think about how hard restoration is especially when you have to make your own parts. I love that you got a new video out and keep up the content

This has to be one of the best knife restorations I've ever seen

wow the craftsmanship is wonderful, You turned a trash in to MASTERPIECE, loved it !

I love the pattern and texture you put on the handle of the bayonet Edit: how'd you gold plate it, i know but, HOW Edit 2: that sharpness test in the end was absolutely awesome and cool

0:50 I love how the rust jar just perfectly spins and display the label in front of the camera

Typically, sand or grit blasting to remove oxides or coatings with abrasive media results in a very thin layer of metal removed, leaving behind a "rough" surface texture that consists of microscopic peaks and valleys. I believe the visual appearance of "white metal" is actually very fine (micro) particulate from the abrasive that is embedded in the valleys on the surface of the metal. If that helps

From unrestorable rusted junk to work of art. Amazing!

A beautiful puece of work! I love the resin handle with the gold metal! I'm glad to see you working again! You inspire me!

Excellent work! That really came out beautiful. With that amount of rust, I thought such results were not going to be possible. Thank you!

End result is beautiful! A true work of art.

Love these videos. I appreciate all the hard work and knowledge you posses to restore items

Bro you are a thousand years ahead every restoration channel

Yes, your videos both help me sleep and entertain me

A new life of old things is wonderful! Great job and great video! Thanks!

your videos work bloth ways, as a day watch, completely focused super interesting at precision, calmliness, all that, and as a go to sleep relaxing videos, that even have that asmr part in them

This is absolutely beautiful. You turn a piece of rust into a piece of art.

Hey look, Tysy is back! 😄👍🏼

Hello Tysy tube beautiful restoration beautifully restored good job well done

The jar slide for the “Rust Dust” near the beginning that perfectly landed on the label for the camera was great!👏🏻

Very cool restoration - I really like the plating idea: the knife has so much character from all those interesting rust pits, but you don't want to to start rusting again. Plating is a great solution (and something different from cold blueing).

One of the best restoration videos. Skills and art. Well done

Incredible!!! 😮 I was scared to blink incase I missed something ❤ breathtaking. You are an artist! Blown away. Literally lost for words!

By far one of the most beautiful things you’ve done! LOVED EVERY SECOND

Now that's definitely thinking outside the box... Very nice work TYSY.. Thx for sharing... Take care my friend ...

Well done sir. Your ability of vision for a project is a true talent.

Rust Dust is getting pretty full. Can’t wait for you to make that knife, however far into the future that will be :D

I cant imagine how long these videos must take to make but you can tell how much precision and care go into each project i love the gold with the carbon fibre as well looks awesome 😅

That jar stopping with label directly facing camera was 🔥

This turned out so wonderful in the end after spending so long on it i know it would hurt me to use it but hey its so nice reminds me somewhat of double o7 the golden gun but more..well stunning Also im glad your back its good to take breaks every now and then so try not to push yourself just know were here for you

I am so thrilled that you’re back. Also, thank you for using that magnetic spinner tool, I’ve literally been thinking about how cool it would be to use that for rust removal.

So great to see you’re back Tysy! I love the video like always. Keep up the great work

Hooray, I knew Tysy was back because comments were getting liked in past videos, and lo and behold a new gem. I hope everything goes well with the family and thank you for this content. I just watched your entire back log of videos a few days ago and enjoyed watching the channel grow over time.

Amazing work. You are a master of bringing old things back to life!!

The final product looks like something you'd get from a videogame lootbox with 1.73% chance

This turned out really awesome! I love how you used the imperfections to restore it.

What an absolutely beautiful restoration. You sir are an artisan of the highest order. Stunning.😊

I like restoration videos and I don't like other restoration of knives but this is amazing. It is the best restoration of a knife that I have ever seen. Thank you and keep going. Waiting for a knife from the rust.

In your 4 month absence you've learned alchemy 😁

Meilleure chaîne de restauration. C'est grâce à lui que j'arrive à calmer mes insomnies. Merci de l'argent, du temps, et tout ce que tu dépenses pour nous divertir et nous faire passer un bon moment de satisfaction 🙏🏻 Continue, on kiffe tous ton travail

I have to say, you took something that was basically scrap metal and turned it into something that looked pretty cool.

Once again, your knowledge and ability on bringing old things back to life, amazes me! You are awesome my dude! Keep it up! Also can’t wait to see the rust knife… I wonder how it will turn out.

Most amazing blade restoration I have ever seen

Love your videos. I find them extremely relaxing. And I've fallen asleep to them many times then I have to go back and watch it again because I missed the final product. Which I don't mind.

You should use hydrophobic (i think i spelt it wrong) acid to remove the rust, its the best way to clean the tool but uh make sure to not leave it _too_ long.

No squash were harmed in the making of this vid.... nevermind.

Le résultat est tellement inattendu au vu de comment était le couteau à la base ! Vraiment impressionnant !

Love how you did the handle.

I knew you were a great restorer but I didn’t knew you are also an artist, that handle is beautiful!

"trust the process" indeed. amazing work

Mmmmm more sand blasting. The final piece is stunning!!

Slicing fruit with a vintage bayonet while wearing a motorcycle helmet will never be matched.

Soundproof restoration room....speechless 👍

This and your other bayonet that you did a while back are easily my favorite videos from you! They are so interesting to look at!

Man, I still remember my great grandad telling me about when he got his gold-plated carbon fiber handle Bayonet from his company's weekly loot box drop. Man, it must have taken him like 98 pulls for it to finally drop, but he did fight in the Battle of the Bulge in style.

Cara vc pra mim é o melhor restaurador no youtuber. Faz tudo com amor e perfeição

Pretty impressed with this one. The blade was in awful condition and when you started sanding/polishing it I thought the whole blade was gonna fall apart. 😂😂 Turned out WAY better than I thought it would. Great job!
