So, I have an older 5.1 (3v) that has the FDE coating that does not get used that much, I have just ordered a new 5.1, to use not sit in bag. So my questions are.
1) How are people dealing with water when they wash their blades and what about behind the handles? I never owned a carbon steel blade always cpm-154, D2, ATS-34 or M390 (Necker).
2)The newer ones are suppose to have the new heat treatment and this peen finish. Of course the new heat treat is not out yet but, how is the peen finish handling rust/staining?
3) Are there any tricks that i should know about when working with 3V to keep it in good condition ie staining/rust?
