This may be a silly question........

I know that it is "recommended" that you use fluorinated grease when lubing your sebenza's and other folding CRK knifes. I don't have any of that kind of grease, but what I do have is a bunch of this http://www.slip2000.com/slip2000-EWG.html. I was thinking if it is good enough for my AR15 it MIGHT also work well on my sebenza?
 
Synthetic greases are classified NGLI-2, while mineral greases are NGLI-1. They are not miscible, the detergents in the mineral grease will break down the polymers in the NGLI-2 and lead to lubrication failure.

So if your Sebenza came with synthetic grease it's is best to stick with it, unless you can properly clean the bearing surfaces.

It is the same P.T.F.E. type lube but will not work the same as ours.CRK lube is specially formulated for us by the manufacturer that is why it is a little more expensive but it works better than any other lube that i have found.Petroleum based lubes do not work well with Ti .To use our lube you only have use very small drops in the right places it will last a long time so is not expensive when looked at from that point of view.
