Bowie Stainless

Remove rust.?

I have this bowie knife from at least 15-20 years ago. So at the supermarket what chemical can i buy to remove this VERY deep rust. If coca cola works will coca cola stain the steel. how long do i leave the knife submerged in coca cola soda for will it damage the wood on my blade please help this bowie is a one of a kind beauty i would like to use it for hunting and fishing. It is stainless steel.

Without knowing where at all you heard some myth about Coke, I suspect you are over stressing. The Rust has already damaged the blade, and I doubt you can do much more harm with carbonation, citric acid, coloring and fructose.

No offense but STAINLESS must have been subjected to the most extreme conditions on the planet, to rust.

Given “ONE OF A KIND” I assume it has some heirloom value, or assumed value to you, beyond it’s intended functionality. Why wouldn’t you assume then, to take it to someone involved in the process of restoration?

Just my two “sense”
