Help to protect and remove some rusting from a few CASE CLASSICS i have.

Hi, I collect a number of eras of Case knives.  I have about 30 Case classics and a few of them have begun rusting.  I keep them in a humidity controlled chest and they are carefully coated with RENNAISANCE wax when I put them up.
I would like to remove the rust and do my best to preserve and protect them.  
Any suggestions?
Thanks so much in advance for your time and help.

Kim,

Great process for the clean up.  I sold my celluloids before they could begin the gassing or shrinking process.  Somehow we missed one which we found not to long ago and it has started to turn.  I told Donnie to replace the scales with whatever his heart desired.

I always wondered...What if you removed the scales. Encased them in a thin acrylic and put them back on the knife? Would it work?
