Any advice for freeing up a slightly stiff, mildly rusty Mercator? Got neglected for a few days on a recent trip & developed a little rust. I’ve cleaned the blade up nicely, but it’s just a bit stiff folding open & closed, & can’t take them apart to clean the little bit of rust out from inside the hinge area.
soak in diesel/wd40...put blade in vice GENTLY and work handle back n forward over n over again....rust will go away....done it a few times over the years with old ones that were seized completely.
