de-rusting

[Sorrow43]

Can someone tell me how to clean an old KA-BAR with house-hold items, it has major rusting and really old blood-stains. The entire thing needs cleaning even the leather sheathe. In addition I need to get rid of its mildew smell. On the handle there is someones name carved on it twice, can someone tell me why
