Mink oil is good to have but I’ve never found anything to top Bicks #4 conditioner. It took me years and several thousands of dollars of leather products to cave and buy a bottle and I’ll never use anything else. If you’re serious about leather care, I’d recommend it highly

FireRetardant@lemmy.world 9 months agoI’ve used mink oil on some of my leather items (belts, knife sheathes) and I found it softened them up quite a bit

Interesting! As a fellow leather nerd, I feel the same way about Obenauf’s LP. Have you heard of it?

Linseed oil is good too, but be careful disposing of the rags. 🔥

Don’t dispose of the rags. You can set them on a hot radiator to dry out and they’ll be good as new!
