it all depends on what you are calling corrosion. Is it just a darkening of the metal, or real pitting?
I think that in our bright shiny world, spots are seen as a big no-no. In fact, if its just spots of darkening patina, let it go. I don't think your knife is going to rust in the course of a single day. Its just not possable. If the knife is just wiped off with a bandana in the morning, and that night a light rubdown with some mineral oil, its not going to rust.
Brett, look at it this way; There was no stainless steel before the 20th century. So, we have to ask ourselves, just how did the old mountain men keep those carbon steel Green River knives from rusting, or a sailor his big sheepsfoot clasp knife from rusting out on the sea in those old sailing ships? Think of all those old carbon steel knives that were in the pockets of sailors going aloft in a storm, or in the pockets of cowboys pushing a herd of long horns up the trail in rain and sun, or or farmers plowing up the Kansass sod. They sweated, were rained on, and they used thier pocket knives really hard, way harder than we do. Sure the blades got dark, moisture stained and developed a heavy patina. A patina is just a surface discoloration of the metal oxidizing. It won't change the qualities of the steel, but it just may after a time protect the steel from further harm. There is a difference between the steel staining and rusting. As long as its not pitting its okay. It would take some time of neglect and no care to have a carbon steel knife actually pit.
I'd have to say its no big deal. In fact you could say that at one time it was considered perfectly normal. Just like people going grey as they age, or getting a few wrinkles in your face from life. Of course nowadays people use hair dye, get cosmetic surgery, and think everything is supposed to look new all the time. I think that one of the bad side effects of the stainless steel age is that people think everything is supposed to be shiny and new looking forever.
Your knifes not corroding Brett, its just developing charater. In fact, skip the mineral oil for a while, and just keep the blade dry by wiping it in the morning and at night with a dry bandana and see what happens. Let the spots go and see if it all turns into a nice dark patina. Think of it as your knife getting a tan from life experiance and use. You don't want a pale knife do you?
