I’m clueless about knives and got this one and another recently but as you can see the condition isn’t the best. On the blade I can see it says “VL&A Chicago” but I can’t read what it says above the handle. I think on one side above the handle it says butcher or Sheffield? Ok the other side I don’t know.

Seems like a nice knife overall minus the rusting. I guess the handle can use work but I’m afraid of messing it up. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.

  1. Yes, it’s worth cleaning, however, your cleaning should not be much. Use is the best detergent. Keep debris off it and keep it dry. Enjoy!

    Yes, it might not be one of the best, but it’s still cool. And looking at the steel blade, it seems to be made of good carbon steel.

  3. Not my area of expertise, so I welcome others more experienced to weigh in; however, If you decide to use a cleaning agent based on others’ recommendations, I recommend applying a small amount to a small area of the blade to see how it affects the blade.
