Cleaning of khanda.

Hi all
the handle is covered with velvet.
The scabbard also.
I think that it is stuck.
I will clean it a little more.
Later I am going to give it an etch .

Hi Galvano,
Dicely done, but what did you use for cleaning?

galvano · 17th May 2007, 11:03 PM

hi all
I polished with very fine bodywork paper.
I cleaned with acetone.
And attacked with ferric chloride.
Neutralized with crockery product.
Oiled.
