First date with the HDFK

Zippo lighter fluid makes short work of anything sticky (from sap, to chewing gum, to packing tape adhesive).
 
I keep a rag soaked in mineral oil in a ziplock in my pack. I’ve never had anything it couldn’t clean off my blade. Including adhesives and gypsum from drywall (I’ve always been amazed at how strong gypsum adheres to metal).
 
I keep one of those little Kitchen Sponges cut in half, in a baggie, and then with some mineral oil added, lasts me quite a long time.
Plus it has scotch brite on the other side if things get real grizzly.
