Hi i just got myself a new Emerson Commander, and was wondering if i needed to lubricate the axle before using the knife... Any suggestions (i.e. WD40, etc...)?? Thanks
 
Your Commander should be pre-oiled (greased?) from the factory, so you should be fine. But if you prefer smoother-than-factory action, a little quality oil would be preferable. I myself use carbonated grease from Chris Reeve and Tuf-Glide from Sentry Solutions. Stay away from WD-40: excellent cleaner, lousy lubricant.
 
No Sir...She should run fine straight from the factory..Most knives get smoother after a short break-in period..Get some breakfree to lube it and a can of compressed air to clean her out.. ..
CRAP I was beaten during my slo typing...

P.S. WELCOME TO THE FORUMS
