Can you use butcher block conditioner (food quality mineral oil &amp; beeswax) on the blade?

Since it has a standard durability coating and it is carbon instead of stainless steel, I don't see why you couldn't use it. For the purpose of corrosion control, you could use almost any fluid oil, BUT if you will be using the blade for food prep, I would definitely use a food grade oil product.

yes you can, just be wary of the finish, you would'nt want to scratch it. Another good tip in using this knife is to use a silicon based lubricant so the knifes body won't become oily in use.

I never did, but after using the same blade for years, I had to replace it with a new one. Technically it suppose to be a cold cutting blade and no cutting oil is needed.Hope that helpsRay

I would start with the boos block oil and once you have used that then switch to the cream. Apply the oil in repeating costs until the wood no longer sucks it up but rather let's it sit until the next morning then apply the cream. I had an antique butcher block that had not been oiled in about 20 years, it took 2 bottles of oil before it was sealed then I asked the cream. The cream contains wax so wood should be well seasoned before you use it. Once done first time reuse one time per month Hope that helps.

I use mineral oil from the pharmacy isle on all my wood cutting boards. Rub some into the wood with a paper towel on all sides and let it absorb and dry. After a while you will be able to see when the wood needs more.

I would use organic coconut oil and a little organic bees wax melted together. Just rub it in well and buff. That's what I use on my cutting boards and it helps to preserve the wood.

I like to season my wooden boards with an oil before they are used, and occasionally thereafter. The product that I use is Butcher Block Conditioner made by Howard. It is a food grade mineral oil with natural waxes. It can be purchased at Home Depot. Before I found this product, I would just use mineral oil. It is food safe and has no odor and does not become rancid. A light coating with a soft rag is all it takes. (I follow the directions on the back of Howard's container).

I have a huge butcher block counter and two large cutting blocks that is used everyday and I probably use a tube every 6 mos. and in between I use the mystery oil. The cream sets in overnight and gives it an extra protection from stains.

The label says: "Ideal for butcher Blocks, Cutting Boards & Wooden Culinary Utensils". I Would include Bamboo in those.

You can use the diamond blade but it's more likely to cut the brick, a softer blade (composite) might be better.

We do not, but the manufacture should be able to answer that question. There is a finish on the surface so I guess if you sand it first, then put "Food Grade Mineral Oil" on it, seems that you would have a cutting board.

I do my butcher block every 2-3 weeks depending on use. I wet wipe after use. since it is safe for food, I would assume cut after applying would not be an issue. This product is great. We remodeled our kitchen and put in a center island, so the butcher block went into storage. It restored are butcher block top after over 10 years in storage.

The label states, "food-safe combination of mineral oil, beeswax and anti-microbial essential oils." So based on that, I'd say your answer is no.

I used this for a butcher block counter top. We don't really "cut" on our butcher block per say, but we do constantly do food prep on it. We use a household kitchen cleaner and it has held up very well for almost a year. I followed the instructions and put several coats on (6 or 7) and allowed proper drying time in between coats. I've also used it since on a kitchen table that I refinished.

You must use oil on this stone. Three in One oil is good, as is any light oil. Diamond and "Whet" stones use water only. I prefer diamond stones for sharpening knives for food prep, because you can rinse them off under the tap.

If the blade doesn't have gouges in it, a kitchen honing steel will work fine. If the blade has visual pits, buy a good whet stone and use that.

NEVER use any wood chopping block for poultry, meats or fish as you will absolutly have cross contamination! Do not go there, ever!Hd polyethene is the only way to go, along with lots of hot water and bleach between different meats, especially poultry!
