Are you both saying the knife was pitted when it was made? It's from the '70s, Spanish army issue. Wouldn't they have made it smooth? I don't mean polished, just smooth. Here's another one https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/spanish-military-special-forces-1882691780

That blade doesn't look like it's ever been polished smooth, as Grumpy Git says. I don't think you'll be able to remove the pitting without changing the blade significantly. I suggest cleaning it as best you can, sharpening it and enjoying the 'patina'.
