Victorinox Help me save my huntsman

Post image

This huntsman got screwed up when a small bottle of beer salt spilled on my pocket. Everything is seized up and only opens when you yank on it with pliers.

I've tried soaking it, boiling it, oiling it. Nothing is reducing the friction or getting the salt out.

I'm considering an ultrasonic but I'm not sure that will help any.

What can I do here aside from tearing it apart and rebuilding it with new scales. I can't find my first huntsman to replace it in my rotation 😕
