1st Attempt at a basic restoration
I had a Hartford Cutlery Extra Hollow Ground 20 that had a little rust, pitting, and staining/patina as well as a chip in the blade. The handle is in pretty good condition so I worked around it and didn't touch it. I did all the sanding by hand. I started taking pictures after I had already started some of the work. I still need to either hone it or get it honed. What do you think?

I think it looks great. I also think it's ready to hone!
