Hi there,
First post here, but I've been lurking for a while. I have an old two-man crosscut saw that was my grandfather's that I'd like to mount on my wall (not too many trees to crosscut), and I'm wondering how you think it ought to be cleaned up, if at all.
Right now I'm leaning toward just giving it a brush with a nylon brush and putting some beeswax + mineral oil on both the blade and the wooden handles, but if you think it's worth cleaning with something that chelates like Evapo-rust I'd listen. As it stands, I can't make out an etch anywhere.
Thanks,
Matt
