| "I find your lack of faith disturbing." |
Do you guys prefer a dry or wet lube for your balis? I used to use blue lube on my 42s because I could carry those in a sheith but I find that tuf glide is better for the 51 when clipped to the pocket so it won't attract lint etc..,, thoughts? "I see you have constructed a new lightsaber." | ||

That makes sense to me, but I'm pretty old-school - I still use 3-in-1 oil to lube my knives. I know Tuf-Glide uses mineral spirits to carry the active ingredient, and penetrate to do what it does, but does anybody know what the "active ingredient" is? The reason I ask is because if it's a lubricant like teflon or something like that, I say it's a good idea. But, if it's graphite, I wouldn't use it. Graphite works more like an abrasive to kind of "sand" mated surfaces and does more damage than it does good. But I don't know what the stuff is, I've never used it. Anybody know? ************************************************************************ Charter Member #9 and Skullmaster °„° Lum Lunatics Brotherhood of the 420 Boomerangs 'n Butterflies: An Osborne Alliance | General, and Member #950 Pardue Pimps® #3 Jack of all Trades, and Good Enough to get Paid for All of Them. ************************************************************************ "No time for the old 'in-out,' luv - I've just come to read the meter!" -Alexander DeLarge (Prisoner Number Six Double Five Three Two One) | |||

Tuf-Glide being "dry" is a matter of definitions. I don't like these WAX coating lubes as they deposit a coating. I've got a couple of knives that no longer operate as they once did because of Tuf-Glide. If you have some of these, use them only as blade lube, to prevent rust, and not pivot/lock lube. | |||
