I need to rejuvenate a number of chisels that have sat unused for many years. Most of them were my Dad's, he did his own grinding by eye and, honestly, he wasn't great at it. I don't know how he produced all the segmented bowls he did with the way these tools were ground but then he could make anything work.
Anyway, before I regrind the tools, some of them have some rust that I want to remove. I don't know what the metal is but I know its not carbide. Some of the tools are from an old Craftsman set and some are older Woodcraft chisels.
Is there anything I should be aware of, as far as using chemical rust remover, when cleaning the tools?
Thanks
