Seems there was a thread which told what grits of sandpaper to use, along with the polishing cloths to use. Think there was an after picture looking along the blade being held out showing the hammer marks. Anyone happen to remember it?

The ones I've found were using white vinegar to remove it, polishing the edge, and things to make a patina.
 
I looked but couldn't find it either. I used Apple Vinegar, soaked a paper towel and laid it nice and flat around the blade so it's in full contact all over and keep it damp with the vinegar.

I was shocked how quickly the scale came off, I tried sanding and it didn't even phase it but that vinegar soak for maybe 20 minutes and it was gone.

They'll probably move this to the cantina. I know there was a thread about this but it eludes me.
