I have an S90V CF Millie. How are you guys lubing yours if at all? And what can I expect if I took it apart?

Thanks.
 
I give mine a drop of Rem-Oil on each side of the tang at the pivot once in a while. Beyond that, nothing. If you take it apart, expect to be unable to remove the scales from the lanyard tube without damaging something.

Thank you.
 
I use Militec and it also works fine
as yablanowitz said, if you open a millie you'll discover that the lanyard pipe is glued to the handles, but you can rotate the handles in opposite directions if you'd like to sand the inner side or something like that
 
I take that cool little WD-40 pen and press down on where the knife blade pivits, then I work them alittle to smooth them out, If they feel like they are getting tight a week or so later I just do it again, by about 3 times doing that your knife should be smoother out in the pivit area.

Thanks, everyone.

One last question - it looks pretty tight in there. Are there any bushings or is it CF to steel?
