**Advice needed**
Now, I have camelia oil but am uncertain if I should leave it on or not. I keep some folders in a wooden Tomway case on my desk. If I oil them it will all rub off onto the felt in the case. I have others I keep in Bill's Custom Cases. Do I leave oil on the knives and have it rub off or just keep them dry? My main concern is the folders in the Tomway case which I am displaying. I also have the regular tough cloth. Can that hurt carbon damascus or ivory? Hows it compare to camelia? I wouldn't personally keep knives around a glass of water because I have had a few knives in the past form a little of that brown color in a few spots, so i'd rather keep them dry and only oil if necessary.
I have chamois to wipe them down after handling but that often leaves some lint of the knives. Where can I find the best cloth to use for wipe downs after handling? Also I tend to have better luck with my knives when I have NOT oiled them for a while and just kept them dry, strange huh?
If you go to my collection link you will see the knives I am talking about.
