Hello, I just joined today, as I have a bunch of vintage pocket knives I got in the last few months and many of them need some amount of cleaning and restoration.
I have bought knives of all kinds for many years, but this is my first time with restoration. I'll post pictures soon and go from there as I research and learn.

Howdy, to AAPK from the other LA, lower Alabama aka the Florida Panhandle. 
You should find plenty of useful information on restoration and cleaning your pocketknives.
