I have some Luzon blades which seems to be worked from rasps. You never will be able to tell which steel is used until you have cleaned and etched the blade.

Hello Detlef and thanks for replying,
If I have this stage of rust on my mono steel blade, can i put a sword with this stage of rust in a plastic pipe filled with pineapple juice after i polish the blade or will warm vinegar will do its work maybe a couple of passes/cycle of vinegar etching. By the way, you did an excellent job on this blade. Thanks again. Oldschhldude
