A friend asked me about ideas for this since I gave them some ODC knives when I visited them. (They are shutting down their summer home and so need to store their knives for 8-9 months.) I explained about camelia oil and anti rust papers but he wanted a quick and dirty solution that would use what he thinks of as more readily available materials. I thought of mineral oil or WD40, but WD40 really sucks to remove completely and is pretty toxic stuff anyway. Mineral oil is fine of course and should work OK. But, since parchment paper is silicone coated on both sides, wouldn't it be a very effective moisture barrier and the silicone would help as well if one wrapped ones knives in it - and he really wants to wrap the knives not just oil them..
