Kershaw Knife Oil is specially formulated to safeguard and optimize the folding mechanism of your knife. Follow these simple steps to ensure your knife remains in peak condition:

1. Begin by wiping away any debris, and if necessary, clean with a mild detergent. Ensure thorough drying, using compressed air or a cotton swab for hard-to-reach areas.
2. Shake the oil bottle well before use to ensure proper mixing.
3. Apply a drop of oil to all moving parts, including the pivot, detent ball, and detent hole. You should be able to access these without disassembling the knife.
4. Work the oil into the mechanism by gently opening and closing the blade.
5. Wipe away any excess oil to prevent buildup.
6. Before storing your knife, apply a light coating of oil to the blade.

These steps will help maintain the smooth operation of your knife and prevent corrosion. Kershaw Knife Oil utilizes Sub-Micron Technology (SMT), which effectively absorbs into metal pores for even conditioning. Each bottle contains 20 mL of oil and is non-migrating and non-toxic (although consumption is not recommended). Keep your Kershaw knife performing at its best with regular maintenance using Kershaw Knife Oil.
