Hello,
I live in the Netherlands and I'am the proud owner of several Reeve knives.
I haven't found a dealer who sells the Chris Reeve Knives Fluorinated Grease. Does someone have experience with other products which will lubricate the moving parts of my knive(s).

Is it wise to use:
-Graphite?
-Teflon 'grease'

Thanks for the advise!

"Should you wish to lubricate the pivot, use a Teflon lubricant-our Fluorinated Grease is recommended for this purpose."

Many light weight gun oils have a teflon component as do other general purpose greases available at most larger hardware stores........at least in this country....... Good luck!

BTW I plunged into CRK ownership at the recent Blade Show with the purchase of 2 Sebenzas ( matching lg. and sm. regulars with the "Stars and Stripes" cgg.)as well as an Mnandi. Love those CRK's!!

Thanks for your reaction.

I changed my lubricant to a Teflon-based-Grease: much better than Graphite!

Also thanks to Neil H. Ostroff (TRUE NORTH KNIVES) who will send me some CR grease.


By the way, does anybody know what the best way is to care for the Mnandi Wood inlay?


Greetings
