Break Free vs. Tuf-glide?

As a user of primarily folding knives i am always searching for the "best" lubricant/protectant for my blades. I have used Break Free for some time now and have my doubts about Tuf-glide being any better than cured Break Free on a folder pivot. The protective abilitys of sentrys products are not in question here, just the lubricative ones. Anyone who has used both want to give a direct comparison??

Hmph! a Jedi desires not these things.

 
Yoda,
Tuf-Glide is better IMHO since it doesn't attract dirt and debris like Break Free. Sure, I agree that BF is a better lube but it also gets a lot more deposits in the pivot than a knife treated with Tuf-Glide---and if your pivot gums up what good is the lube?. YMMV though

I've personally become attached to AG Russell's "Rust Free." I use it on all of the khukuris I sell for the following two reasons: It doesn't gum up the blade and it seems to stay on very well. It has no petrolium in it, so I think it must be silicon based?
