Remove Rust from Your Knives

Just last week I was pouting over the rust stains on my knives that are only as old as my marriage. Today I saw some tips online for how to remove rust, so I gave them a try and am very happy with the results.


How To:
Soak your rusty knife in lemon juice, then scrub away at the rust with the rough side of a sponge until it comes off! I didn't fill my cup all the way because I didn't want to waste lemon juice, and it's a good thing because there is an even more effective method.


I found that by pouring baking soda directly onto the knife, then using a wet sponge to scrub the rust stains, removes them almost immediately. There is no soaking required!


Beautiful knife, happy me.

  1. We have all of our knives hidden in our closet because I don't trust my fam enough to share them. So that's our method of keeping our knives rust-free. But I'll have to remember this tip for when we move out!

    1. Yes, remember it! Our knives have to be hand washed but sometimes I get lazy and they sit in the sink for a couple of days. That's kind of how the rust happened....I'm so happy I was able to remove it!
