    I sometimes use a stainless steel brush, a brass brush and a dental pick to clean those pesky grooves.

    3M radial bristle discs & a dremel. As long as it's not heavy rust.
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    A Dental pick I find gets into the grooves well. Removes gunk and rust easy and then just metal polish after.

    SS brush on a dremel is all you need.

    Brass gun cleaning tooth brush and wd40 or clp (gun cleaning oil). Gets rust and gunk but they stay dark. On some blades the jimps and or tang seem liked they were blued.

    I like Maas on a Dremel felt polishing wheel. Works great for me and I've never had a mishap.
