removing rust like areas from straights

[D.Irving79]

so i just acquired some straights today: a W&B and 5 henckels. most of them have rust like stuff on them. not on the edge, on other parts. i know theres a way to get it off, but i cant remember what it is. help a brother out

Check out the wiki entries of straight razor restorations. There is one on rust removal. SRP also has some good information on their site as well.
