This is a real giveaway, but you need to visit the link above, not some telagram or whatsapp number.

Well done 47, looks like you successfully restored a Japanese saw, with minimal casualties.

Hey Johnny Sins, loved the vid. Wouldn't mind seeing some more off-brand stuff like this, really enjoying the variety.

I just love your content, your production, your narration, your knowledge, and your skills. I don’t care whether you’re restoring tools or crafting a table.

My opinion from my experience: This was the first time I've seen any of your videos. I'm a fan of tools, especially old ones. I don't watch furniture making videos. You're reaching different audiences by doing different projects. Keep doing it! Keep doing what you like.

This was a nice change of scenery. I think one restoration video for every 2 or 3 furniture videos would be really nice!

Lol that Gremilins refrence almost went over my head for a min, but when I realized I burst out laughing. Much respect for choosing a different handle, I too probably would of switched after getting that far, just goes to show we all over think our creation process.

I love this video. Not only do I like tool restoration videos but what I really love is watching you do different things and the whole process of you learning new things all on camera it's really fun and educational as well.

Watching 1 video and becoming an expert is my speciality. I am also an expert in restoring japanes hand saws now, thank you.

Jhonny Sins, this is an awesome project. From the lasers and the sharpening and that pin is just a great touch! Also, not being afraid to change everything in the 11th hour, earns you big points. You have to trust your own madness! Yes, do post more 'odd' projects like this, they are a great addition to the already great content you have here. Big fan, btw.. this is awesome stuff! Keep it up!

I love that you were done with a handle, hated it, then redid it. That’s one of the most difficult things to realize. Fantastic work

I absolutely love watching videos of people restoring old tools and or machinery. This turned out awesome man, good job with not letting the tool down by respecting it!

Not sure if I’m biased, because I absolutely LOVE watching restoration videos, but please keep making these if you enjoy doing this! You make great content. Always a pleasure to watch.

The gremlins reference was hilarious. Acrylic floor wax, used in VCT tile upkeep has some very interesting gloss effects when used on wood. Can do multiple coats for different results.

Hey Saitama, loved the video! Restorations are always fun to both do and watch! Paul Sellers also has some great info about sharpening saws.

I really like this video. I used to do similar things but now, at 75, I'm reduced to watching others do this. Keep doing this restoration stuff. You do it well.

Looks amazing, especially for something you weren't used to doing. I'm glad you had gone with that second handle design, I've seen way to many restoration channels make the same mistake of over modernizing an old design, with good intensions, only for it to ruin the look and feel of the tool. Awesome job.

Honestly, I kind of forgot that it wasn't furniture because I was enjoying what you were doing. I think what makes your videos unique is your narration and style. This still felt 100% Blacktail Studio.

Wow Cam, you’re like the Beatles of woodworking videos, great stuff!

I love your restorations! I love everything you do. I love it when you do a new video, I watch it, and I show it to my class. I teach math at the high school and junior high level. All my kids love to see your videos. Keep them coming! Whatever you decide to do go for it. The only caveat, is watch your language. That’s really important where I teach.
