@@kenshowtosandreviews4320 you're welcome, its kinda annoying how some youtubers drone on for like 5 minutes about their personal life or whatever or interpersonal relationships or their channel before getting to the actual video
Just put it in a plastic bottle with nearly boiling water with some Dawn and give it a shake for about 5 min then put 2 drops of oil down the shaft afterwards will be really clean.
I’m not an expert but it’s oil the worst thing to use? No doubt oil might clean it in the short term …but you’re cleaning it with what is basically a magnet for more build-up going forward. I would think lithium grease or something dry would be loads better at preventing build up over time. Good idea though about using the opening for compressed air.
This video is a huge timesaver. I was about to submit a warranty claim on a knife I bought new a year ago but never carried. Blade would drag constantly and lock intermittently. Thanks!
NOOOO graphite and any other Lubricant WILL gunk it up. Maybe not right away but it will. REM Oil is very thin. Even Mineral Oil is too thick. Gunny Glide Magic Oil is only other. REM Oil can be purchased anywhere even at walmart
@@kenshowtosandreviews4320 I was thinking something like Otis dry lube spray. I use it on my firearms with great results. I also have some nano lube I might try
Thanks man, love how simple and straightforward this video is, no fuss no bs
Thank you for the comment that really means a lot!

That’s a fantastic idea! I’ll do another video on your method and give you a shout out!

Nice I’m glad the video could help you out. Thank you for the view.
I'm new to otf knives. But wouldn't dry lube be better? It doesn't attract lint and other impurities like oil does..?
That sounds like a solid option and smart! What are you thinking, graphite?
