Axis lube?

[luke86]

Hey guys I just bought a Benchmade 943 and it is a little rough upon opening where the axis bar meets the blade tang. What lubrication should I put on this area so I smooths out a little? I have militec but heard it can accelerate corrosion. What would you guys suggest. I want to protect from corrosion if anything. Thanks

I've used a bunch of stuff over the years (Mili-Tec, Tuff-Glide, CLP, etc.), but I've liked BM's Blue Lube the longest. I still use it and it works fine for my knives.

I was thinking about getting some of that. Are there any stores that sell it. I would love to pick some up tommorrow if I could find any.

I second the benchmade blue lube recommendation. Works great. You can get it on amazon, or any if the other major knife retailers who carry benchmade.
