I use Tuf-Cloth. Its a lint-free cloth soaked in oil/silicone that is non-greasy and doesn't attract dirt. It also prevents rust. I use it on my firearms and knives. The stuff work wonders. At only $8, this product is a great deal. I have had the same cloth for about a year and it's still good.
EDIT: grammar
I think Tuf cloths work well with D2. I'm not sure if you would want to cut food with that, but you could always use food grade mineral oil as well.
What I do is get a Tuf-Cloth and wipe down the blade before you put it away
Some rust prevention tests can be found here and here so you can see what works best.
I would definitely recommend wiping the blades down with oil or some other rust resistant product such as a TufCloth. Probably couldn't hurt to throw a desiccant of some sort into the cabinet/drawer/wherever you store your gear to soak up the moisture out of the air.
I was using gun oil to prevent corrosion of my steel. Another poster here suggested that might be a bad idea. After a lot of searching and reading pretty much every thread on the topic on B&B and SRP (there are several in the archives), I decided NOT to oil my razor at all, as the general consensus is that oils can do more harm than good. For those who do choose to oil their blades, mineral oil or non-corrosive gun oils are the most popular choices.
Now, instead of oiling, I wipe it down with a TUF-cloth and store my razors inside a silicone gun sleeve in a drawer with a small rechargeable silica dehumidifying canister. Probably overkill protection, but it's easier than oiling and I feel much better protected with a total long term investment of $22.
If you're on a budget:
I think a Tuf-Cloth may help. Knife and gun guys use it to protect their carbon steels. Its also used by museums to protect items that are prone to rust. The product in the cloth creates an invisible barrier from the elements. http://www.amazon.com/TUF-CLOTH-12-Resealable-Pouch/dp/B000E892Z2/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=1YH1ZRQYXJWUH&coliid=I4CVG2QL61RXU
Edit: Oh and congrats!!!!!!
I just bought one too! I was researching upkeep and it seems like the three big things are:
With that said, has anyone ever used TUF CLOTH for cleaning and blade maintenance? I bought a fixed blade ESEE and that is what they recommend so I figured I could use it on all blades correct?
