Thread: Camelia oil?? Where to buy??

Where can I get some Camelia Oil like Lynn and Don use to coat the razors they sell and hone?

Most of the Japanese knife stores, like here

I am waiting for SRD to stock these someday, hopefully.

Very Soon

Thanks,

Wow, that's hardly more than they sell it for over here. Cool!

Just FYI, if that's anything like the cutlery oil that I have (and it sure looks a LOT like it...)it is mostly mineral oil. I believe O_S has pure Camellia oil on his website, or if you're desperate I could pick you some up.

**EDIT** Never mind. He's here.

I was hoping I could get it locally. otherwise I will just use mineral oil.

Woodcraft.com has it in a spray bottle.It's a bit large but works well.Don't know about the purity,but it is made in Japan,has Japanese writing on it,and has an English label pasted on.

I get mine from Dick Fine Tools in Germany.

Actually, sewing machine oil works great too.
