Thread: Does a stainless blade need oiling?

I'm pretty sure what you have is a pure clove oil or nearly so. The stuff I'm talking about is mostly white mineral oil with a small amount of clove oil added. It's cheap and a small bottle will last a very long time as it only takes a drop or two. Another method I've used is to just keep a small rag that's nearly saturated with the oil & just give the blade a quick wipe with it.
