Sewing Machine Oil Or Choji Oil

this could be a can of worms

 

my understanding is that choji being a natural veg/plant oil degrades over time once on the blade and becomes hard to clean off, and I have had "A" understanding that's slightly acidic if left on for long periods of time. (might what to fact check that one guys)

 

 

with polished blades in shirasaya I used singer sewing machine oil, or pure mineral oil(for swords) very very sparingly, and cleaned the old oil off with 99.5 pure alcohol.

you prob well know to avoid the powder ball of fine scratches hahahhaha

I do remember there is a thread here over 3 pages long about this subject. very detailed
