Does anyone have any suggestions for removing tarnish from old brass, copper, and nickle blades? I've tried baking soda toothpaste, and that shines 'em up a bit, but doesn't remove all the old tarnish.

Thanks!

Flitz. Works instantly, and really cleans them up.

Jewelers Rouge works well for me. Available at most major hardware stores.

Soak them in Coca-Cola! Sounds funny but it works. That acid in coke will remove the tarnish!

Good idea on teh Coke! It does work and then I use a Dremel with a little metal polish. Hard to look at them after that
