Blow it out the best you can, using compressed air if you have it. The filings and grindings will work out. Another thing is to put a couple or three layers of blue painters tape on the blade before moulding the kydex to the knife. This will allow a slight bit of clearance for the blade and help minimize scratching. I personally don't worry about a scratched blade for a knife I use knowing it is going to get scratched with use anyway, but I also don't polish blades (which will greatly show off the scratches) and I don't want a blade all scratched up that I plan to sell. Who wants to buy a scratched up knife?
I'm still trying to wrap my head around how plastic Kydex scratches hardened steel.
