Originally used in Japan as a cooking oil and for beauty purposes. Tsubaki Oil (Japanese Tea Seed Oil) is a must have for high carbon steel knives. Apply a few drops after use to prevent rust, corrosion and discoloration. It will also help shine and condition your knives. The Rust Eraser will help remove rust and stains on your knife. Follow the grain of the knife, gently moving the eraser back and forth. Only erase on rust/stain spots. For maintenance info and professional Japanese knife sharpening contact our Yoshihiro Cutlery store. Review: And that is no exaggeration: this knife oil--I know it by the name "hinoki"; there are other names for it--is bsolutely fantastic for knife blades. Living in the high desert, rust isn't much of an issue unless one is careless with one's knives, but regardless, it's always a good idea to protect blades with the application of oil periodically. This oil is perfect: viscous enough to stay whete you put it but light enough to be easily spread on the blade; it dries quickly without leaving a sticky residue, yet blades that have been treated will resist fingerprints and repel dust for days. I love shiny, satin finish blades, and I love the even shinier mirror finish blades when I can find them, but they are susceptible to finger prints when handled. Leave those print on a shiny blade long enough and the acidic skin oil will permanently discolor the steel. Satin/mirror blades that have had this oil applied, however, behave like stonewashed blades, i.e., they will not pick up finger prints at all. It's really quite remarkable and wonderful. One more positive feature of this oil: it can be applied to blades with a partial black coating w/o staining the coating. In other words, the plain metal portions of a blade that need oil can get it, and the black coated portions aren't left with a big, greasy smeer. Ok, one more great feature: I've treated +50 knives in the week I've had this oil and the volume in the bottle has decreased maybe...10%? Maybe less, depending upon exactly what the fluid level looked like when I got it, which I dont recall. Oh, and the eraser works great too. With a little patience it took off some patina spots that had developed on a CPM M4 blade I have. But the eraser is just a normal-good product. The oil is one of the most phenomenally outstanding products I've used, ever, period. Review: Perfect product for high carbon coating, has lasted months on my blades, with good care, the occasional inspection and just a few drops of this, my blades are ready to take a good nap without fear of rusting.

The oil in this kit was very nice, coming in a bottle that was sealed. The bottle comes with a conical tip, with a cap at the end so you can dispense a small amount of oil at a time. This was perfect for dropping on knife and scissors/secateurs. What totally amazed me was the rusty eraser; this small little blue square was incredible. It wiped out some rust on a pair of small scissors that had been left outside in the humidity. I thought these scissors were going to the trash, but they cleaned right up (I did take a file to the edges). For 12.99, incredible deal (perhaps I’m mesmerized by the eraser). I would recommend this kit to a beginner looking for their first oil kit or someone more knowledgable looking to try Camilla oil. I think this will work great on many blades, and I have applied to knives, secateurs, and other garden tools.
