I tried Ballistol today on one of my more heavily used Phrobis M9's and I have to say, that stuff is magical!
I got all the dirt of the blade, and most of the blade rub marks. I wiped it down with some Ballistol first and after a few minutes I wiped it down again with a clean cloth.
I also wiped down all other metal parts of the scabbard and knife. For the rest I used a moist cloth. Cleaning the inside of the scabbard is a little problematic, but not really necessary anyway.
Would it be advisable to wipe the metal parts down again with some Ballistol before storage or is it lubricated enough now?
I will post some pictures of my recent acquisitions tomorrow, hopefully
