    Default My new vintage Spartacus Thiers Issard

    Hi guys,

    Here's my new aquisition, a Spartacus from Thiers Issard

    After some cleaning with mainly Silvo (look at the green giant becoming a spartan)!

    The blade a still some work to do on it but I dont want to mess it. Still som pits and tarnish but the bevel is clean and it honed like a charm.

    Any tips for further cleaning? I don't want to sand it down and lose the writings on the blade.

    Thanks!

    It looks great man, I usually dont do anymore than that on etched blades. You really end up spending a lot of time on just a little advancement or loosing the etching.

    Thanks for all the reply.

    The workshop sticky is indeed a goldmine!

    I think I will leave it like that.
