The best course of action is to prevent rust rather than to have to remove it. If possible the sword should be kept at relatively constant tepmerature and humidity. A thin coat of a light, non-acidic lubricating oil is all that is needed. Sword supply shops sell a special oil. tI protects well and has a nice aroma also. The blade should be re-oiled occasionally to prevent the old oil from becoming gummy. Wipe the old oil off with a clean, soft, white cloth or tissue paper. Don't use colored materials as the oil may cause the color to bleed onto the sword and stain it. Gentle wiipng action is all that is required not vigorous rubbing. Don't soak the blade with oil, just use a very light coating.
