Well I've given it a good clean , the silver came up well and the scabbard, but the blade needs more work than I thought , I havnt etched the blade yet because i think it needs to be cleaner to see any pattern , I'm not sure whether to carry on with it as it will take so much work to sand it down , I wouldn't use a machine sander as I know they can distort the shape of the blade ?
