How Do You Get Rust Off Of Kitchen Knives?
One of the easiest ways to remove rust from kitchen knives is to use white vinegar. Soak the blade in white vinegar for several hours or overnight, then scrub with a fine steel wool pad or an abrasive sponge. Rinse well with warm water, dry thoroughly, and apply a thin layer of vegetable oil or mineral oil to prevent further rusting. Alternatively, a baking soda and water paste or lemon juice and salt mixture may also work for removing rust stains.
