2 questions

So, my mentor just gave me a knife he had during ...ops back in the early eighties. It had 20 year old blood and brain matter on it. I've been instructed to clean it before use so I wouldn't get an infection. I've gotten most of it off with CLP, but haven't been able to get it all off. Anyone know of a way to do it?

Second question: it's a Chris Reeve knife from either 1979 or 1980. it's part of a numbered series, number 100 of 150. I'm not going to sell it. Ever. But out of curiosity, what would be the value of something like that?

What a curious post;

- Why did your "mentor" leave "blood and brain matter" on a knife for 20yrs?

- If the issue is only "infection" then disinfect it, any remaining stains won't matter.

I only know what current models sell for, sorry.

He left it there as a reminder to himself that combat is ugly, and never to get back into it.

Uhhh. Right.

What "op in the 80's" would that be?

He didn't tell me and I didn't ask. I don't think he'd have told me if I did.
