I love my SpyderCo Military!

Alright fellas...need some help. Found this old Barlow knife that my late stepfather gifted me before he passed. It's been sitting in a drawer and looks like hell. How can I clean it up and make it look good again?

PM Tony, Mac. No Clue, Here.

A little flitz and some elbow grease or judicious use of a dremel-ish tool will do wonders. Initially? I would take some Barkeepers friend to it after cleaning with some carb cleaner to de-gunk and start with a clean knife to start with.

Mac, if you want to just take off the rust, but leave the patina that's developed on it over the years, the 0000 steel wool and elbow grease. Then coat the blades (and handle if it's bone or stag) in a thin film of oil, I use mineral oil you can get at any pharmacy. This will give you a clean, protected knife that still shows the well earned marks of a lifetime of use. Just my

Totally agree with Derek on this one. You may need to take it apart if the action is gritty but I would try to avoid it unless it is necessary.

Tony, if I take it apart...there will be extra pieces laying around when I put it back together.

Thanks for the input fellas.

I am amazed at the quality of this knife for the price...love it!!

HuntDucks · 01-10-2014, 03:42 PM

I carry a Case Canoe everyday. Useful blades, and its rounded shape never digs in or gets hung up in my pocket.

Hunting season I always have a Kershaw Avalanche with me, as well as a good quality machete in the boat.
