How to remove small scratches on the polished finishing blade?

Bill DeShivs · Mar 17, 2023

As I restore knives professionally, I can tell you that matching most any makers' mirror finish is very difficult- even with lots of professional equipment.
Use the maker if he is available.

I decided to send the knife to the maker and ask him to refinish/repolish the blade.

Thank you all for the suggestions.

As for the knife, It is better if I am not mentioning its name and its maker here. Hehe...

What's the big secret. Are you sure you have said knife?

I don’t follow the logic of keeping it a secret. It’s not like you were bashing the maker, but it’s your knife and you can choose to do with the information about it what you want.

I choose not to identify the maker(s)' name(s) here, for some personal reasons.
