Answers. How to care for your knife. The KnifeCenter offers an incredible selection of knives for every taste and purpose. All of the knives need proper care if you want them to perform to their full potential. Modern knife steel is very high quality material, but all metal will corrode through time. Occasionally oil the joints and springs of a pocket knife with a drop or two of oil.

This will assure easier opening and closing and will prevent rust and lessen wear. Wipe the blades now and then with an oil-moistened cloth to prevent rust- especially if you live in a damp climate or close to the ocean. If your blade should get wet, dry it thoroughly. Do not store knives in their sheaths. Check the locking notch of lockbacks regularly to ensure that it will work properly. Do not use the cutting blade as a can opener, chisel, pry bar, screwdriver or for any heavy work for which your knife was not designed. Handles made of wood can be occasionally rubbed with furniture polish or oil. BLADES: Rust Not! Survival Cache — The Gear Site for Survival.
