Hi Kai & Ian,
Thank you for your comments. Can you both reference a tutorial how to clean rust and general cleaning for Moro kris? Unfortunately, I am a beginner collector and don't have much experience at all with that nor etching.
Perhaps there is some links to videos or prior posts on instructions.
Also what details on the blade indicate active rust and how long would it take to cause irreparable damage?
Thanks!

Regards, Ian.
