Thanks for the info, Jim. I know you have to be careful if you do any cleaning, which is why I wanted to ask here before I did anything. I think I'll just leave it as is (except for oiling the blade). Thanks again!

Active rust should be removed before oiling or waxing .

So should I just spray a little WD40 on the active rust and then wipe it off with a rag? Sorry for all the questions, but I've never done this before and I don't want to mess up! Thanks.

600 grit wet dry sand paper with/oil wd-40 is what I use or 0000 steel wool and WD-40 is ok to just don't over do it.
