Restoring a World War II Vintage Cattaraugus Knife and Making a Leather Sheath

Did you know that the U.S. issued knives OTHER than the KA-BAR in WWII? :) But seriously; I purchased this World War II era Cattaraugus 225Q "Quartermaster" bowie knife from eBay. It was in rough shape and in need of restoration (just the way I like my knives!). I cleaned it up and gave it a new sheath. The leather washers in the handle were deteriorated, so they had to be replaced. For a little bit of extra flair, I also added some G10 and brass spacers. This video is equal parts metal work, restoration, and leathercraft. follow me on instagram @roadagentleather For those interested in the tools I use in this video, below are some Amazon affiliate links: The rust remover/converter: https://amzn.to/3zv5y0f Kroil penetrating oil: https://amzn.to/4evT2fE Emery Cloth for sanding (not the exact brand I used, but same concept): https://amzn.to/4eyRAth Synthetic Wool Pads for Dying: https://amzn.to/3UgwHep My Dremel drill press: https://amzn.to/3NvCXLR The mini Proxxon table saw I used: https://amzn.to/4feKKJP Neatsfoot oil: https://amzn.to/48eZpSK The xTool P2 laser: https://amzn.to/4hk8EW4 The belt sander I used to sand the handle (mine is from Harbor Freight, but here's he same model on Amazon): https://amzn.to/4dZHlgA My knife sharpener: https://amzn.to/3Zy3xLp A link to my general Amazon store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/roadagent...
