Carbon Steel

How can I remove rust from a carbon steel sword?

I have a modern reproduction sword of carbon steel that is beginning to rust guard, which was exposed during storage. The rust stains are light, so I think that has appeared recently. What should I use to remove rust and prevent it from getting worse?

The only thing about using steel wool is that it will cause scratches on your sword. Go to your local hardware store and pick up some 400 sandpaper to destroy rust. After this you need a good cleaning kit and here in this link. http://www.swordsnknife.com/collectibles/japanese-samurai-katana-sword-maintenance-cleaning-kit/prod_558.html. The game of the great works of cleaning and maintenance of the swords in the tip top shape ....
