How to properly care for daggers and pocket knives?
So I’ve recently started collecting daggers and pocket knives and am wondering how to properly care for them. They all have Stainless Steel blades. What cleaning agents should I use? What types of oil are okay to use on the blades?
Pocket Knife (found in an old purse of my mom’s):

(Sorry if this is the wrong category but couldn’t find one that really fit.)
I plan on carrying the pocket knife since they’re useful to have on hand. The daggers will probably only be for display and wearing to Ren. festivals.
If you’re just going to display them then a light coat of 3 in 1 oil will work.
