Tsubaki Oil (Camellia Oil) 100 ml – Protection Against Rust for Knives
Code: KNTN-KB-401Product detailed description
Tsubaki Oil 100 ml (Camellia Oil) – Knife Corrosion Protection
Traditional Japanese Tsubaki oil (Camellia oil) has been used for centuries to protect samurai swords and precision carbon steel tools. Thanks to its unique structure, it creates a thin protective film on the blade that effectively prevents corrosion and extends the life of the knife. It is the ideal choice for high-carbon steel knives, which are more susceptible to rust than stainless steel materials. The oil is lightweight, leaves no greasy residue, and is food-safe for kitchen use.

Main Benefits
- Protects against rust and oxidation – creates a protective barrier against moisture and oxygen
- Traditional Japanese care – used for centuries on katanas and kitchen knives alike
- Neutral and safe – odorless, tasteless, and non-toxic
- Non-drying and non-sticky – unlike common oils, it does not form a gummy residue
- Lightweight and non-greasy – leaves only a thin protective layer
- Versatile use – also suitable for tools, scissors, garden equipment, or cast iron
More Information
Tsubaki oil is obtained by pressing the seeds of the camellia plant (Camellia oleifera or japonica) and contains a high proportion of oleic acid (Omega-9), which ensures its stability and resistance to rancidity. Due to its low viscosity, it easily penetrates the microscopic pores of the steel and displaces moisture. This prevents the formation of corrosion, which occurs when metal reacts with water and oxygen. Unlike common kitchen oils (olive, sunflower), it does not oxidize or smell, making it suitable for the long-term protection of knives.
How to Use
- Thoroughly wash and dry the knife
- Apply a few drops of oil to a cloth
- Spread evenly over the entire blade
- Wipe off any excess – a thin layer is sufficient
For maximum protection, apply after each use or before long-term storage.
Who is it ideal for?
- Owners of Japanese carbon steel knives
- Professional chefs and knife enthusiasts
- Anyone who wants to extend the lifespan of their knife
