    I actually cleaned all of them from rust with light sandpaper, Sidol and steel wool.

    I only saw one pic, but the only way to tell if it will be useable is to set the bevel on it and look at the edge under magnification.

    So I honed 2 of them and they cut like Hell. I did a test on my arm and all the hair was cutted away directly... Oh yeah and the stone actually serves as the hanging belt does, so said my grandfather....

    well the blades look better the chipped one will be much narrower when the chips are removed, the frameback "le kiki" looks like a fine tool. the pitted Halfmann with the cell rot will need some hone love but the pits could already be too deep a restorer would need to actually see them to determaine if they are salvagable... heirloom blades are great and most restorer understand the sentimental desires of owners.
