Also I live in a fairly humid environment and I heard the words "mineral oil" being thrown around as far as keeping the blade from not rusting. Can anyone give me some info as to what to do with the mineral oil i.e. how often to coat, how to remove before a shave, etc... Thanks again in advance for all your great and helpful comments and happy Thanksgiving.
