Anyone to help?
Hey guys! I recently purchased a Red Imp from eBite. Of course the pictures were made just so nothing seemed wrong. Of course there's pitting (or what I think is pitting) across the spine and a little on the top of one side. The rest of the blade is fine. Due to my lack of experience and/or tools, I was wondering if anyone would clean this up for me and maybe get it shave-ready if possible. If you need more pics just let me know. Just let me know a price estimate.

Aw, that's nothing!
Hell, even I can fix that!
Now, if that level of rusting was along the edge....That's a different story!
PM me if you want me to touch it up.... With that bit of rust, there will be pitting. I can remove the rust and work on the area. It will not look mint (You'd have to remove quite a bit of metal to get that perfect), but it will look good.

He got rid of the rust either by scraping or sanding, then sanded down the pits to an acceptable level then polished. It's pretty much what we talk about daily lol.
