I have this Barlow knife I found cleaning out my dads house. Any ideas on how to clean it up properly to try and get it back to looking good?

Sharpen it and use it as is, while trying to imagine the tales it could tell.

"The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them."
Albert Einstein

At Khe Sanh a sign read "For those who fight for it, life has a flavor the protected never knew".

Put a sharp edge on it, light oil... and you're done.
