HOW DO YOU CLEAN A BLACKENED BLADE?
Hey guys, I have a question. A friend of mine in my Bible Study asked me if I could restore his Grandfathers Straight razor. It is "The Artist" Levering Razor Co. 11/16" Oblique point. I've added a picture. The blade is almost completely black from age, which I believe is because of the blade being Carbon Steel. I may be and there's a good chance I am wrong about that, but how do you clean a razor in this condition. Do I take it to the buffer, put it in the tumbler? I've never dealt with this before and really need some advice. Thanks for any help you can give!
