Folder & MT Maintenance

[skidoosh]

What's your choice on your folder- add lubrication or not?  If you do lube any suggestions?

[Benner]

On FRN folders I just leave well alone usually, unless it's a lockback with a rough action where I will put just a tiny amount of lube where the back spring engages.

All my other folders get regularly lubed and you can really feel the difference after one has just been done.  It makes a world of difference.

I use Chris Reeve's grease as I am a bit of a tart, but it is really good stuff.

I apply synthetic motor oil with a 1 cc syringe, the needle will drop oil exactly where needed in just enough amount. I filled the syringe over 6 months ago and only used little more than half.

Marvels Mystery oil. Never freezes or gums up. Great stuff!!
