Okay as some of you may or may not know I am leaving for navy bootcamp in a week, assuming everything goes well after two months I will then have 5 months of schooling to be followed by deployment to round out 4 years. While there will be small opportunities to come home and hopefully dust the knives off I cannot count on it so I am wondering how can I safely store my 6 knives: three shiges, ho wood handles, an o-1 gyuto from Del stablized wood handle, Tadafusa blue 2 Deba with ho wood handle, and a stainless parer with giraffe bone from Butch. So what are your recommendations for how to treat them before packing them away. They will be in a locked toolbox kept at my parents house (can never be too safe). I was thinking maybe some 3-1 gun oil? But have no idea, I'm guessing not in any sayas? But boxes obviously a plus? Thanks for the help.
