Hello-
I have been collecting knives since the 1970’s, and began collecting Randall’s in the 1980’s. As my collection has grown I have sought different ways to protect and store my knives. Renaissance Wax seems to work, most of the time.
My question, and the reason for this post, concerns humidity. I recently purchased a climate controlled cabinet to store my collection in. What is the best humidity range at which to store knives? This would include knives made of tool steel & stainless steel with micarta, stag, leather, wood, etc., handles. I have seen ranges from 30% to 50%. Thoughts?
Best regards,
