Looks like you may need a belt grinder to fix the tangs on the middle two

What's wrong with the middle two and I wish I had a belt grinder but all I'm doing is the sanding

Nothing is wrong with them, it just looks like you went a little deep in the pitted areas. You may want to consider evening out the deeper areas thats all.
The other two look great..
IME the dremel puts scratches so deep that emery cloth is required top take them out. I guess it depends on the pressure used, I put my dremel out of its misery (maybe it was my misery lol)

Pinklather fell off his Giraffe
Tyler, those are breathtaking. An way beyond what I'd hoped (remember somewhere I thought 600 grit finish was fine?) You've gone way beyond, and your hard work really shows well. I should take sanding lessons from you.

Use the dremel to buff. get a couple felt wheels, use one for Tripoli and the other for red rouge. Use the tripoli first, clean the blade good and then use the red rouge. Just keep the blade cool.
You can pick up a variable speed foot controlled rotary tool from harborfreight for around $50-60. when on sale $40.00. Their worth it all day long.
run those blades through a vibratory tumbler and you'll be amazed at the finish.
