Hey folks, new here and looking for a talented Swordsmith capable of restoring a sword with rust pitting damage on both side of the blade along with some on the cross guard/pommel/center ring.

I really want all or as much of the pitting removed as possible. I know some folks like the pitting on sword, not my thing so I don’t want to leave it as is. Also I know there are risks in terms of possible profile changes to the blade when it comes to removing pitting and I am alright with the risks. I would just ask for open communication before something was done to make sure I know what could be changing at that point.

Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated so if you are talented smith and want to take on the project let me know. Or if you know someone that is and could recommend someone please let me
know.
