Agir Knife

[DomaNitrogen]

I just got a new agir knife; after 6 dives it started to rust. i usually wash it after one day of diving.

What can i do to prevent it to rust?
What can i do with the rusting any chemicals to undo?

To prevent rust, coat the blade with a very thin layer of silicone "grease" (the stuff used for o-rings) before diving.

To remove rust, I usually rub it off with gun oil and some rough cloth.

you can try light machine oil.... like the type they use for sewing machines....

If it is stainless and light surface rust, take a lemon or a lime, slice it in half and rub it on the knife-the acidity of the juice and the scrubbing power of the pulp should clean it.

Simply WD-40. It works...
