Steve, if the U-05FL has a short shelf life, that's close to a deal breaker. By short I mean 2 to 3 months. I may go a couple months with out making a knife and then I'll put out a bunch. I don't mind a shelf life of a year and have no problem throwing something like that out and eating the expense but a couple months is too short.

I'm trying to understand if a silicon based sealer that is suggested to have acetic acid like TexasJack says would be a problem on high carbon steel. If it does eventually cause a problem then that is also a problem. It's not a deal breaker if some one is always a stock removal guy and will always work on stainless but I do both and wouldn't want it in my shop.
