Hmmm yea that looks like some good stuff, I appreciate it! I've used the Hoppe's oil for the past decade and a half in all my knives and it's always worked great. Just a tiny amount is all I use. The CRK fluorinated grease is really nice for certain applications too. I was mainly thinking some sort of dry lubricant just specifically for the detent ball. The detent ball path on the blade seems to be the spot most responsible whenever one of my knives' action starts slowing down and feeling nasty. I was thinking just a pin prick of dry lubricant on the detent ball might be ideal for not collecting grime, while also easing the resistance just a bit.I have a large tube of TW25 for my handguns that I have been using in my knives with great success. Makes anything with washers butter smooth.
