Successively finer grades of wet or dry sandpaper, with each new grit being polished at right angles to the previous grit.

I think using the Flitz metal polisher would be the best choice. I havent used it, but from what I heard it is excellent stuff.
I actually have a tube I'm about to use on beloved Cold Steel kukri cause I negelcted and it has alot of hardend dirt and rust on it.
I asked my question in Shop Talk and everybody screamed "USE FLITZ! IT'S KICK ASS S*** FOR EVERYTHING!"
So I'm going to try it this weekend, I'll let you know how it works.

Yeah, what Walt said. I haven't ever used the flitz stuff, but I know SiC sandpaper works. I have tried it with a few blades and it works great. Just start coarse and go thru progressively finer grits. I also found that I can polish a blade to a mirror finish with a 4" wide strop I made loaded with 1200 grit silicone carbide. I just rub the flat parts of the blade on the strop until I get there.
good luck!
