Patina or pristine is the users choice. Do what keeps you happy.
I actually didn't know that.

I've been rinsing my face, rubbing with an alum bloc and when my eyes stop watering from the sting I dried my razor, stropped it on my board 15 times slowly and carefully then oil it and leave it open to make sure it dries.

I also get between the scales with TP.

In future I will leave it for a few hours before I oil it.

How often should I oil it.
