Mora and rust

[resnikov]

Whilst on holiday my wife was chuntering about how bad the knives in the appartement were and she asked how sharp my Mora Clipper was. I said it would be better then the knives she was using and left it at that.

Later that day i asked her if she had seen my knife and she said she had used it to cut up the chicken for tea, but not to worry she had washed it.

Now it has a little bit of rust round where the handle meets the blade.

Should I worry about that? If i should whats the best way to remove it and should I oil the blade and if so what oil ?

Cheers

Morning, Id give it quick light rub with the scouring pad on a washing spong to remove the surface oxy, and as long as there isnt any pitting just give a rub of oil, i used linseed oil on mine and havent had any probs at all, hope this helps

I wouldn't really worry about it. Rub the surface rust off with some wire wool or fine sand paper, oil the blade and then carry on as normal. If it gets worse, well it's a great excuse to buy a new one.
