1912 Antoni Tadross - Need Help
I have a 1912 Antoni Tadross and I need some help restoring it. I am quite sure the scales, pin, and spacer are not the originals but they are in perfect condition. However, there is some rust on the blade towards the swivel, and black discoloration all along the blade. There are also some scratches running vertically up from the blade where someone must have shoved it against a stone trying to hone it. I can easily get the rust off but I do not know how to get this black discoloration to go away. I've tried a silver polish cloth, and do not know what else to use. I've been thinking about using MAAS polish but would like to get some opinions on wether or not this might work, as well as any suggestions on what to do.
Also, the pictures were taken with my phone and it was hard to focus it's camera on the blade. One side of the shank has a bit of rust, while the other side shows the black discoloration. The blade's little spots are the black color I mention.
