moly resin

[Jared Stenoien]

anybody tried it? if so how well does it work for knives?

I've used epoxy, polyurethane, polyester, and phenolic resins, to mention a few.
I see moly resin is a self-lubricating phenolic resin which contains molybdenum disulfide...
I don't see the benefit in knives.

I know it's used as a rust resistant coating on guns, i was thinking about coating the blade with it but was wondering if it would rub off too easy

To lubricate the blade??

 

[Jared Stenoien]

and protect it from rust, maybe i'm misunderstanding what it does? but i was thinking that the lubricant part would also help stuff like sap to not stick to the blade

Barring anyone who has used it, and can explain its uses, try it and give us a critique...
