i was just wondering if both sides of the washers need to be lubed? i wouldnt think so, i think just the blade sides would be lubed but i could be wrong.
 
I put it on both sides. Just a little bit, flourinated grease. Also on the pivot bushing, and ball. My sebenzas are all butter on glass smooth. I'm sure trane fan's right about 1 side only, but I figure what the heck. I clean my daily carry sebbies fairly regular though.
8 and counting,

"Clean the sides of the blade and the pivot hole, removing any lint or grease. Put just a drop of lubricant into the hole, then slip in the bearing. Seat the thrust washers on either side of the bearing, with just a touch of lube underneath them. Make sure the bearing and the washers are flush. Lightly lubricate the lock ramp and the ball race (the mark that is made by the ceramic ball on the blade)"
