Rusting on Hart Steel Razor
I have bought a Hart Steel Razor from Classic Shaving. It is the best razor I have ever shaven with, I must say. However I have a slight problem with it. I have been using it for about a month. Then I went onto a trip for a week during which time I left the Hart Steer Razor at home. Yesterday when I back home, I found the razor has developed tiny patches of rust in the areas where the scale meets the blade in the mid line. I have removed it by rubbing it with a towel and the rusty reddish color has come off. However, the areas were left with a darker blemish of steel gray. Is it possible to restore the blade back to the original color?
My next question will be how to prevent it from rusting again. I know I should oil it and wrap it with anti-rust paper if I intend to put it away for some time. But a few days of not using it?... Do you guys oil your razor everyday? I have other razors which I left in the same bathroom untouched for several weeks and they are still OK. I know the kind of steel has a lot to do with this. But just a few days???....
