Just a FU note:
Found a good storage media for the soaking: A pool skimmer's tube. Cut it to the right size, it bends according to the blade's curvature, and displaces less volume, so I will need less pineapple juice. Lets see how this develops. I will use the decorroder on the hilt, and scabbard fittings. Best M |

Began the cleaning. Added the Pineapple juice yesterday. Tube seems to hold the juice sans leaking. So far, so good!

Now comes the patience part ...
![]() Check every day or so and remove anything that has softened . The solution will get very funky after a while . |

Bad luck, the tube's end became unglued, and the Pineapple Juice ended up spilt on the floor.
New attempt has been made to glue it back with a stronger glue. Will try with new PJ in a couple hours. Wish me luck!
