hey fellas, i just thought i'd share something that's worked for me. i got an old empty bottle of nailpolish from my girlfriend, rinsed it out with acetone and put olive oil in it. just take out the tiny brush and brush some on the blade to stop corrosion. plus, there's no mess and you don't waste oil! works like a charm for me 
That's a very interesting suggestion!
Definitely one for the "hmmm" files :-)
