Boy that's a Honking Knife there. Bowie Style.

Hell a bit of Electrolysis and it may still be usable.

My self , I would think it cool to use a knife that old. Rust Pits and all.

I'm still a little leery about cleaning buttons. There is just a hint of silver gilt on it. Usually I just soak'em in warm water then take a soft tooth brush to them.

Try the Alluminum Foil/Baking Soda thing on one.

With the Copper or brass in the Button Don't Use the Salt. Just Baking Soda.

yeah, I can understand being careful with them. Could be my problem is the magnification, and not the cleaning. (maybe I need to see the wife about some new glasses or a bigger monitor) And homefire's trick there is pretty safe.
