arkie Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I've never used it on a handle...did finish a gun stock with 12 coats once...came out beautiful! On my handles, I use a 50-50 mix of boiled linseed oil and turpentine, well rubbed in. Later, after it dries a bit, I wipe it off. Don't like a sticky handle.

Benton Frisse Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I have used it on a knife that had red oak scales... I really liked how it came out! I've also used it on a hickory tomahawk handle... love it. I just don't like how it's a royal pain in the butt to scrub off your hands, but rubbing in the oil with my palm is the best technique I've found so far.
