I was sharpening up my carbon knife today, and did a bit of a **** on the shoulder of the blade... Didn't notice really until I cleaned away the mud from my polishing stone that there were some little black specks on the shoulder rash... I broke out my 15x lighted loupe and it looks like it's some little red pits (even at 15x I have trouble making them out, and my eyes are fine).
Is this a bad sign? Deep pitting? I had scrubbed the knife clean earlier in the week and had not noticed anything like this on the surface... I know this isn't much help without pics but I've not got a camera.
Is it safe to just grind the rust out with a lower grit stone?
