A female friend of mine has asked me to find a buyer for this dagger. It is an Eickhorn, and in really good condition. The question I have is there is some rust on the blade. Would it be a good idea to have the rust removed, or would the risk of further scratching the blade make it not worth it? The rust is not terrible, and the only other problem I see is that the handle is somewhat loose. Other wise it is in really good condition. Also is there anything else I can do to increase its value. My gut feeling is to leave it the way it is. Here are some pics.
