How much are you using the knife?A carbon blade used alot forms a natural patina cutting various kinds of food.Using a rag on corner board is good.Don't worry about every little stain.After the patina is formed only the polished edge can rust,after it patina's with alot of cutting not a problem either.If you polish the blade every time it stains you will go through danger of rust all over again.
Shigs really aren't like that, they really like to react a lot even when the patina seems well developed, in my experience. A refinish typically fixes the issue.
