Thread: Restoration of a Dubl Duck Goldedge

Hi all,

Here is an update. I polished the bolsters and pin end along with the blade, didn't tough the tang. Next step is off to be honed somewhere!

Looks super! I see that stubborn spot on the front persists. Try smearing some polish and work on it with the sharp point of a pencil. Nice Job!

Interesting. Haven't heard that one. There are a few other spots there. After 25+ applications of mothers aluminum and mag polish they won't go away. I don't want to break out the dremel and emery or rouge in fear if messing something up. I might have to to get rid of them though.

You will find the pencil will scrub well, and will not hurt a thing. If it is a pit, using the pencil with polish, you should be able to get the black out of it, at least, so it will not be seen easily!

Good point sharptonn :<0) The spots may still be there but not active any longer. Looked like rust to me but if not you may have the miracle cure. I thought maybe everyday use would wear it down also if it was not rust.

No miracle, Pups, but works excellent in between etches, etc. Like I said, won't hurt a thing.
Ya need a good, high quality sharpener, tho!

I use round tooth picks with a polish or emery compound for getting to the bottom of pits. Even used them in a Dremel with a chuck for the relatively point source of working. They do wear and break up fast but.....so what?

I use toothpicks as well ! Nice addition, Richard! Small, light steps taken with soft sharp items with the addition of light polish will help!
