Jim16a1 Posted June 2, 2015 Share #3 Posted June 2, 2015 Nice knife! I wouldn't do anything aggressive to it. A good oiling or possibly a wipe-down with bore cleaner on a cloth should do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheeltim Posted June 3, 2015 Share #4 Posted June 3, 2015 I typically wipe down with lacquer thinner, then oil. As previously mentioned, nothing abrasive, and no buffing or polishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Swigart Posted June 5, 2015 Share #5 Posted June 5, 2015 Flitz polish is as aggressive as I would get with this. It will cut the fine rust but not remove any metal. It leaves a protective film as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
