    Leather slips definitely cause tarnishing/corrosion. As for how to restore the knife, unless there is pitting, I think just hand polishing with Case Paste/Flitz/your favorite polishing compound is a better choice for most people.

      Agreed. Use the tools you have available. I’m sure most folks don’t have access to a bench grinder and buffer pad

      Thank you sir. What grit sandpaper would you use on a blade like that to remove shallow scratches?

    I use a dremel with soft buffing pads and diamond lapping paste to polish my knives. I also have various grits of polishing compound for softer materials of the handles like wood, plastic and bone so they don't get scratched or burned.

    Last month I bought a new Case Canoe from SMKW in the deep canyon jigged Autumn Sunset. It came with the 1095 carbon steel blades which I really enjoy sharpening and mantaining with oil.
    These knives really deserve the care and attention that you demontrate in the video, they respond very well to maintenance. That trick you showed to polish the inner brass liners works great, nice tip!

    I'm telling osha! You can't be doing that buffing on the grinder without some big ass guard that makes it more dangerous to use. Lol😮

      A white compound. It cleans up easier than the green

    Heck yeah, that's impressive. I've just used flitz polish and a rag before. That block you made with the different grits is awesome, cause I'm always a lil bit afraid to try it on my satin bolsters (like your 47). So thanks a bunch. I'm gonna give it a try

    Great info about the soft/pliable sandpaper. I didn’t know you used the white before the green polishing compound… I only ever had green and was happy with the finish it left. That looks canoe pattern looks great after all your work.

    • @richterknives
      @richterknives  Год назад +1

      You don’t necessarily need the white compound. It’s just easier getting out the scratches.

    • @sheltermonkey6065

      There's no standard for the color coding of polishing compounds. Green from each manufacturer is different.

    Hello and Thank You for having showed some very good polishing tips. I wasn't sure about the order of rubbing compound. That's why I get mixed results using the white, green, black, polishing compounds. I buy quite a few older slip joint knives and enjoy doing a thorough cleaning and polishing before displaying or storing them. And I'm always looking for new ideas Thanks for sharing them. Oh almost forgot have you tried this Nevr-Dull metal polish/cleaner by Eagle1.It is a 5.0z.can of wadding just pull out a little bit and rub rub rub lol it is great on brass, copper, stainless, nickel-silver and bone delrin, micarta anything i've tried it on comes out very good,

      I recommend renaissance wax as well. It was recommended to me by an avid knife collector who collects $4-5k knives. Not $100 dollar knives like me lol
