<p>[QUOTE="Lark, post: 8665451, member: 13605"]I have mentioned before a product called Frontier 45. It is a scouring pad for carbon steel. It is not like most scouring pads and is probably made of nickel. It will not scratch steel but will scratch softer metals like nickel ,copper or brass. I use it to clean up pocket knives and carbon steel kitchen knives. I used it to clean up my father's Marine machete. So I think it would work on a sword. If you just put oil over the rust you will continue to get rust under the oil. we see this often with people who just oil fireams. Try using a nickel and lightly rub a spot to see if it comes clean.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
