Timber Framers Guild Forums General General Forum Questions Are old broad axes worth buying or not?

The pitting on my new Barr slick is on the neck where the handle goes in. There is more pitting on the face of the slick too. I got the rust out. My cat engraved it for me!!!! Good thing I love my Persian female kitty!!! She is my shop and truck mascot. How can I get the pitting out of the slick? My wife got me the Barr slick as a gift. So anything I could do to fix it up would be helpful.
Thx. Eric
