Mr. Maisey,

Eagle eye your right , it’s not a scratch it’s corrosion but not through to the pesi
There is still a 1,5/2 mm of metal left. And yes the blade could use a cleaning. But I will put it aside as there are more urgent restorations to be done.

I took some better pictures.

Regards, Martin.

Surprising.

EDIT

Pendita, I've just had a microscopic look at at your most recent photographs.

I do hope you are right.

Hello Mr. Maisey,

I do hope so. But for now I leave it as it is maybe WD40 spraying and wrap it in paper and clingfoil and put it aside.

Regards, Martin
