Identifying/Conserving a Kaskara from the late 60s or earlier

Be careful not to overclean with the rust erasers (or with any abrasive really); they come in different gradations of coarseness, and while they feel soft and springy like a pencil eraser, they do remove steel over time.

BTW by sheer coincidence rapier's delight just happened to post another cleaning video about a kaskara just yesterday:
