Becker Chapstick?? **Updated w/ Pics.**

Silver Needle said:
Very timely topic for me. I'm looking for something longer lasting to use on the edge of my blades when they're put away for the Wisconsin winter. Mineral oil would not stick on a blade edge for weeks/months would it? Is there anything in chapstick that would not get along with 1095 steel for an extended duration?

I'm newer to knives, but only partially stupid, so I hope to find something that works for my coated bk9, 2 and soon a 16.

Mineral oil fine for long term storage.
 
Home and time to clean up the steel. Sandpaper, sharpen, oil, Loctite... as good as new.

My buddy later sent me this pic after he added a bk9 to his collection. The king must have left a pretty good impression on him after our little outing :)

Well that's it. Happy to report that as always we left the spot and the hike along the way cleaner than how we found it.

Happy trails.

Chapstick will work. I had to use some to lubricate my weapon before, and it worked surprisingly well.
