Hello Members:
Have a TAD Dauntless MK 2, it was made on 7/27/12, never used, brand new. The side of the blade has many small reddish tiny tiny spots. Can this be rust? How do you take these spots off? My member friend told me after viewing pics it is Petina. Recommended to try oil and rag, didn't work. Tried rust 7 remover, still there! What should I try that will not harm coated finish. No way a brand new knife of this level should have any rust spots or blemishes! Your thoughts are appreciated??? Thanks very much
 
TAD customer support is great! They are going to repair knife to factory new standards and pay return postage. Thanks
