Hello, everyone.
I recently bought a Bradley Kimura 7 (bead blasted, polished finish) off of Bladehq, at first I just ignored the "*Blemish*" warning on the description, just assuming it was just going to be a little spot of gunk on the blade or something. Nope, 7 days later, the knife gets here and it's absolutely coated in grease, fingersprints, smudges, and a bunch of little patches of sticky gunk that I can't get to come off. Naturally, my first idea was to thoroughly wash it in some warm, soapy water. That didn't do much except for make the nasty month old sushi smell on the knife go away, so I looked for some information on Google.
I couldn't really find a good consensus on grease remover/blade cleaning solutions and I've heard about this website being reputable so I figured I'd ask here. All I'm really looking for is some kind of cleaner that will eat through the grease, and other gunk built up on my new knife, whether it be a household product I could cook up in my sink or just some generic stuff on Amazon. Also, some recommendations on some polishing paste or whatever would be nice, since I assume this polished finish will come off eventually. Thanks in advance. :thumbup:
(Sorry if I formatted this post badly or left out some important details, I'm kinda new to knives and knife stuff in general.)
