    Just don't get close to hydrogen peroxide with this blade, NEVER, ok?
    If it was mine, I'd just live with the fact.
    Anything I know able to clean the ivory would be too nasty for the steel, and unpinning it would be risky. The scales will crack open if you dare, probably.

    Out of curiosity what does hydrogen peroxide do to both the ivory and the steel.

    It would release free oxygen, clearing the ivory, but rusting the steel savagely.

    When I first read the title I thought "Well, I prefer cottonelle toilet paper."

    Now I have to go to the WI meetup just so that I can dope slap you for that comment!

    Regarding the crack, I too would recommend leaving it alone.

    Maybe it's just my eyes, but what do you want to clean off of that anyway?
