New2Randalls Knife Enthusiast Registered: 04/19/07 Posts: 1196 Loc: Kalifornia	It’s that time of the year when I apply mineral oil to my ivory handled Randall’s. Decided to take a few pictures and share on the forum since I haven’t posted in awhile. Hope you all enjoy them Dan Snyder RKCC #cm-155 Attachments A699CC4F-C491-4E9D-8B9A-296AEA11A073.jpeg (192 downloads) _________________________ It's best to remain silent and thought a fool than to speak up and be proven so!

Sidney_Redford Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/20/05 Posts: 1621 Loc: Blue Ridge Mtns. Va.	I use to do that but they still cracked. I finally gave mine away, not really but what I got for them was way low. I still have a few. _________________________ Sidney Redford NRA Endowment Member RKS #84 NRA Life. Shag # 11

GCTom41 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 01/25/10 Posts: 2367 Loc: NY	Dan, I also do the mineral oil this time of year; I do 10-12 knives per week. Wrap in terry towels soaked in mineral oil. Clean the knives and back in the displays. I also do distilled water in humidity pots each week in every display throughout the year.

tunefink Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/13/05 Posts: 4052 Loc: Bambalam	FWI is not nearly as prone to cracking. Duke McCaa has his FWI stabilized which makes it even less likely. _________________________ Always, buying, selling and trading. www.randallmadeknife.com
