Rusty Old Hand Made Knife Restoration....WITH CHEAP HARBOR FREIGHT TOOLS!!!
What happens here
Begin by removing rust and imperfections from the old knife blade. First, use a sanding sponge to manually rub down the blade, focusing on rust spots. Follow this with a cordless drill fitted with a wire brush attachment to aggressively clean the blade's surface and remove deeper corrosion. This process will prepare the blade for buffing and polishing.
Goal: Clean the knife blade and remove rust and surface imperfections.
