I've had luck with Evapo Rust to remove active rust without eating away at etching. Oil and steel wool thereafter and some metal polish for final shine. Lot's of good suggestions here to start.

Looking good! Less is definitely more. I used heavy buffing compound with a drill on the tang of a Masonic W&B and accidentally hit the edge of the etching. If I had to do it over I wouldn't have worried so much about getting the etched side perfect.
Seeing some new recommendations I haven't seen discussed before. I will have to keep those mind.
