I'd try the apple trick. I've used it on vintage knives after I cleaned them up and it really works. Take a vintage knife you've had to file on or buff a bit to clean up, then cut up an apple with it. Leave the juice on the blade and let it dry for a couple hours. It will be blue / grey again in no time. A quick rinse in cold water will clean it off and you'll be set.
