    1 of the knives i bought is a thin handled knife about 5 inches long that has made in USA on the blade with no other markings anywhere on the knife.

    Any ideas on what it might be?

    I think you have a good idea. Wax will probably last longer than an oil and grease is messy.

    If stainless steel, then why?

    If high carbon steel, then oil/grease.

    Wax? Why wax? What kind of wax?

    I believe most firearms in museums are waxed not oiled. I have a ton of knives most of which are stainless however the LT Wright Coyote I have with me right now is carbon steel and will rust if I don?t keep a light coat of oil on it. I have a ton of knives. Right now in the car I have the LT Wright, a Swiss Army Camper, a Benchmade 950, an Emerson Mini Commander, and a Timberline Ceramic folder. Oh and a Cold Steel machatte in the trunk. I find a light coat of something like Rem Oil works great.

    If you want what the pros use google Renaissance Wax.

    If you are going to wax them, and I believe it's a good idea, then use
    Renaissance Wax.

    If you're throwing them into a dry box, why don't you put some disiccant silicone gel beads in with them... That'll keep the moisture out... I

    In shop class, our teacher had us use something called Beacon wax on axes and such after we sharpened them.
