If it is stainless, I use nothing. It doesn't need anything.

NismoNothing usually, but I have a microfiber rag (the kind that comes with Chris Reeve knives) soaked in slip2000 that I use on guns that I sometimes use for blades.

OgieNano Oil on the pivot, rubbing alcohol for the blade when it gets gunky followed by a hot water rinse.

toxophilus84+1 on Froglube; for pivots currently using KPL, both work great for my uses.

WarhorseMy EDC is a Benchmade Phaeton, if the blade should happen to need a cleaning, hot tap water with dawn dish soap does the trick for me, followed by a wipe on my jeans.

ScurvyAll my carbon steel blades get rubbed down with coconut oil. Very prominent knife maker friend advised me and I do what he says.
