Album: Public (MitchellM)

Seemed on the boarder line of being able to save it, decent surface rust but no flaking rust.
Found this old saw on the Kerb-side pickup. As i'm a trash panda I decided to take it home.
Blade is not great in some areas, but decided to attempt to at least bring it back into service.
Disassembled to take a better look and make sure all the rust is gone.
Used my Ryobi Random Orbital sander to take the majority of the rust off.
Things are looking better here, but I'm not a great fan of the tarnish the rust has left behind.
Took a break from the blade and hit the fixings with some 240 grit wet/dry sand paper
Sanded back the

Fortunately my camera for some reason, didn't capture me applying a stain varnish, which dried not to my liking. It also showed I needed to sand with a finer grit as I could still see some sanding marks.  Sanded back the handle again, which came up nicely.
Didn't want to re-coat with a varnish again, so went with a Feast Watson stain (Oak) then buffed in some Scandinavian oil. I'm very happy with how it turned out, exactly what I was going for.
Handle fitted
After a decent effort with wet and dry sand paper the a metal polish the blade came up fairly nicely. Some imperfections still but they are just too deep to worry about, I did not want to compromise the integrity of the blade over having a mirror finish.
