<p>[QUOTE=&quot;the blacksmith, post: 10147156, member: 20148&quot;]It is hard to tell, but I think it is surface rust Komo. If it is, then steel wool and Solvol Autosol would be my recommendation, though a bar of soap, or if nothing else is available, them just oil. Solvol would be my first choice though, it is cheap, avaialble in most pertol stations and leaves a thin protective film on the metal afterwards.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]507829[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Incidentaly, I have to disagree with Komo about honing the blade. It is an antique and not going to be used again............... is it!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie80" alt=":shifty:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> These were probably not very sharp in anycase, they were really only intended for stabbing. Certainl the Albacete daggers that I have had have never been sharp, just wickedly pointed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
