I've seen some posts with vintage knives that have been restored, I'm just wondering how people do it.
I've got an old slipjoint knife where the blades are stainless and there is no corrosion on them, but opening it feels gritty. I put some ballistol on it, and after letting it set, brown gunk came out from the spring area/hinge that the blade pivots on.
Do I just keep doing this, or should I be using a different product to remove the rust?
