Hello Fernando, What I meant by a "rubbing" is not a cleaning method. It is when you take a piece of paper, place it over the section of blade that has the makers mark and then using a pencil held so the graphite is at about a 45 deg angle rub it back and forth on the paper gently to reveal the makers mark on the blade underneath. As I am not very good at explaining how this is done, I would recommend a quick Google search on how to make a rubbing.
Best, Robert |

My bad Robert; should have well understood it.
I have never used such method, though. The enthusiasm is not great in this case either, as the mark is most faded ... and i don't know what to look for ... you know, something expectable. But i will soon give it a try  .Thanks |
