What kind of oil does Uncle Bill put on the khuks?

Just let em rust, and use nothin Though like Bruise on my long-term hangers I use auto-wax (good ol turtle wax for me), for project blades (stuff either in a process of restoration, cleaning, etc...) either WD-40 (if it needs cleaning) or baby oil (if it needs workin), and for users, well I use nothin. I like a well worn look on user blades, and if you etch them usually the patina is relatively stable and helps protect the blade. Well those are my .002 cents

Its not abuse its just tough love Really though, I only have two big knives that I really use alot (one being a K and the other a big scary bolo), and I made sure to etch em nice and grey. Though Ive never had problems with rust on knives I use alot, its the ones that get neglected, that like to cry rusty tears

Bruise, what brand of auto wax do you use?

Oops, I missed the question the first time around. I use Turtle Wax with carnuba. I think carnuba is edible because I saw it as an ingredient on a box of candy. Pure Tung oil is also non-toxic.

I figure if I get trapped in the garage, I'll have enough food and drink for a day or two.

If you get stuck in the garage, you can just cut your way out through a wall or something!
