Nice knife,maybe very fine steel wool might help remove rust. Or maybe semi chrome that is a favorite around here. Then maybe a light coat of oil or another favorite is renwax. Good luck, Ian.

Thanks Ian> will do

Hi,dirk model 1935 of MVSN(Milizia Volontarie per la Sicurezza Nazionale)in origin cruise is steel sun-tanned and the furnace painted in black,it was very common in the époch that awners of dirks personily(duce,text,insignia..)them with insignia or engravings in the hand other one idem Arditi or Austrian knife 1917

PS:sometimes also the furnace carrying letters and symbols MVSN and"faisceau de licteur",cleaned to bring to light the relief
even more..

"A noi!"

Use BRONZE wool, not steel wool. Bronze wool will take off the rust without damaging the scabbard like steel wool would. Apply a coat of penetrating oil like 3 in 1 oil first then use the bronze wool.

Thanks Skyline>>maybe i can also cover it with some nail varnish after i take off the rust...

Can you show some more pics? Nice looking grip, is it wood?
