Scale and handle finish

[BigMallard]

I'm making my own brush handle and I'm debating on what finish to use. I don;t want to use CA because of the humidity down here in Florida(I've tried it before). This leaves me with things like boiled linseed oil, Tung oil, spar varnish, mineral oil, poly, and a combo of Mineral Oil and Beeswax. I don't like linseed b/c its too sticky.

So what do you fellas recommend. I've used all of the aforementioned finishes on different projects in the past, just never used them on something that comes into contact with all of that soap and water.

I like tung oil. many light coats, fine steel wool in between coats.

I've been using something called Arrow Wood Finish it goes on like an oil finish but its waterproof . It originally started for gunstocks but can be used on anything wood. Its easy to apply no mess like CA, my only issue is getting it to shine as much as I want it to
Here's the website Home of Van's Instant Gun Bluing and Arrow Wood Finish.
I don't have anything to do with this company other than use and like its product

for quick and easy finish I kinda like the wipe on poly- mimics a rubbed oil fishish.
