    Tool clean up and preservation

    I should know the answer to this question and with a little help from our search engine here I am sure I can find a lot of information on this topic posted in the past. But I have been off this forum for years and just wanted to get back with my neanderthal buddies. I was in a time long long ago a practitioner of neanderthal woodworking trade (hobbyist only). As such collected some stuff over the years. But in the last 5 yrs life has gotten busy and I haven't been able to do much. It's gotten to a point that I am going to get out of the hobby altogether.

    I've been cleaning my garage the last few days and getting all my hand tools out so I can prep them up for sale. Noticed a lot of hand saws have a fine layer of rust on them. So what would be a good method to clean them up and then preserve them to have a sale some time this fall. I live in Dallas TX. which is not very humid but I do have a small pool in the back yard which probably contributes some to the corrosion from chlorine etc.

    The means by which an end is reached must exemplify the value of the end itself.
