    Were the potatoes submerged in water or did you just have the razor in amongst the bits of potato?

    Thank you for undertaking this experiment, Sham. I think we were all hoping that the potato trick would not only easily remove orange rust, but would also wipe away the black staining/patina. It doesn't surprise me that the potato didn't remove the staining. On carbon steel razors, that stuff very simply seems to be bullet proof and invincible save for physically removing it.
