Anyone who has read almost any of my posts here knows that I absolutely LOVE my Ambitious.
But, I've been having a problem with rust spots on the blade due to the fact that I sweat like a pig at work. I realize it's a cheap knife, and the blade is cheap steel. I'm fine with that. And I suppose that's the root of the problem, since my Manix 2 and Buck Tempest that I regularly carry along with it never have any problems.
I've tried coating the blade with a thin layer of 3-in-1, which didn't help. Then I tried a thin layer of Teflon, with even worse results.
Any suggestions?
I didn't know whether to put this here, or in the Spyderco forum, but figured I'd start here since maybe others have experienced this kind of problem with other makes.
And yes, I did a search on this, but found nothing of substance. If anyone knows of a thread dealing with this I'd be very appreciative if you could post a link.
