I don't have a favorite, but I want to know opinions on what everyone's favorite lube is so that I can try them out.

Thanks!

I use a product made by KLEEN BORE called TW25 B . It is the best I've found so far . I use it on my knives and guns , and once it is on , it stays on . To get it to adhere realy well , just heat it up with a hair drier , and it will flow down in the pivot area , and the heat causes it to bind to the metal .

By the way , when applying it to a knife first put it on the knife where you want it , then use the hair dryer to heat the pivot area , the airflow helps to get it down in the pivot area ,a nd the heat causes it to bond .
 
Militec is the poop! I have had the same little bottle for almost a year now, and it's still over half full. That's how often I have needed it after it was applied. Put it on a Bali, and watch it sing!
 
Astroglide. Some one had to say it.

Actually, Redline 30wt synthetic motor oil.
 
KY Jelly. Or actually, the "generic" equivilent.

Oh. You meant on my KNIVES...

Eezox or FP-10.

I like Breakfree. Just make sure you shake it good because the teflon in it settles to the bottom. Big D1
 
Astro-Glide :D

For my knives, I use Tri-Flow.

I want to try some Militec-1, but haven't found it locally yet, and I really don't want to order it online & pay $8 shipping on a $5 bottle.
 
Militec-1 is da bomb. To make it even work better, heat the area to be lubed with a hair drier as hot as it will get. Apply the Militec-1 and work it into the action. Repeat this procedure about three times, wipe off all he excess oil, and you are good to go. The stuff actually bonds to the steel when hot enough.
 
One part Rem-oil, three parts miltec, ONE-DROPLET 10-30 semi-Synthetic MOTOR oil. Apply, USE a BLOW-DRYER for approx 10 minutes [NOT TOO WARM mind you] and wipe the excess of with a TUFF-CLOTH.
Hey....IT WORKS FOR ME!!!!:p :p :p :p

Break Free CLP. Since it's good-enough to use on my Glock pistols, it's certainly good-enough for my knives!.:).
 
For my pivots. . .Sentry Solutions "Hi-Slip Grease™."

But, over the Christmas holiday my Carson large M4 was feelin' like it needed a lube job. . . Have had a bottle of "White Lightning" for some time and decided to finally break it out and take it out for a test drive (besides, I could use it as an excuse to break the M4 down again if I didn't like the White Lightning :D ).

Anyway, took the M4 down, cleaned all of the old lube off of the critical pieces, and lubed it with some "White Lightning." Not being used to using White Lightning. . .I was slightly worried about using it. Put the M4 back together and was shocked with its new performance ! The opening and closing action of the M4 was much much smoother. No oily, wet lubricants to attract dirt, dust and pocket lint !

I'm sold on it !

And. . .I use "Rem Oil" on my Microtech's though. . .
 
Here in Alaska lubes have to withstand sub O weather without turning to a gel or something worse. THe new senthetic lubes like FP-10 are at the top of my list.If you want something that will dry so it won't attract dust and dirt I like tuff glide or the Remington teflon based dry lube. Good luck , you've got alot of good choices.:D
