Hi Jeffs,
IMHO definitely salvageable, but to what extent will depend on how far the rust has penetrated the metal. I always use WHITE VINEGAR...(from local supermarket) and soak the offending item in it. Time needed will depend on heaviness of rust but it works quite quickly.
Here is a link showing how well it works...http://vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=24394
