I don't know what the deal is with this knife. I love it, and take care of it. I'm careful to clean and dry it after every use. Make sure there aren't any finger prints. I even store it with a silica packet. But every time I take this blade out after a few days there's very very tiny rust spots on the handle. What am I doing wrong here?

I would post pictures, but I've since cleaned the spots off a few times.

Any advice?
 
i had the same issue with many of my satin finish knives... then i bought a tuf-cloth. boom, problem solved. i'd post a link, but none of our sponsored dealers carry them. use google. :thumbup:
 
Hit it with some Flitz or Mothers Mag Chrome Polish. After the residue is cleaned off the rust is gone and a protective layer left behind. Tuf-cloth works great too.
 
This is all good advice. I'm gonna go with Tuf Cloth since everyone's been telling me to pick it up for a while now. Thanks fellas.
 
Tuf-cloth is great, though one problem I've had is with the storage pouches falling apart at the "ziploc" enclosure.

Get the ones in jars. A little more expensive but totally worth it to avoid that issue.
