hi Sajen, I'm new to the forum and I was looking today to this post.
the clean up of teh blede looks wonderful and I would like to ask you how did yoo achieve this result. Did you work the blade surface machanically (sandpaper, abrasive stone or similar) or chemically?
I always wonder if it is "right" to use sandpaper (of course by hand), even if of very fine grade (say 800), on old blades to get rid of the rust.
Thanks
Paolo
