New purchase.

The blade is pretty well de rusted now, I have been trying out something I found online. Suggested for cleaning chromed items, coca cola and scrubbing with aluminium foil, the foil being soft enough not to lift the plate but harder than the rust. It has worked quite nicely on the koftgari, scrubbing down to the steel and not damaging the silver applique. In fact I am considering using it on the grip, just to remove the upper/looser layers of oxide.
