Here's LEVEL5 Tools President Scott Murray with a quick overview of how to properly care for your blue steel and carbon steel tool blades.

Recently we've received a lot of question about how to manage and take care of your Blue Steel and Carbon Steel tools. High carbon material tends to rust so they have to be taken care of. After use with these knives you need to get them thoroughly nice and clean and then you want to put some WD-40 or some other kind of lubricant just to keep the rust down. And then you want to stack them so they dry properly to get the water out of any crevices.

LEVEL5 Carbon Steel Joint Knives with Soft-Grip Handles offer precision flex and feel for a smoother finish. These knives feature an incredibly strong, high-grade carbon steel blade construction for superior strength and durability. And our Blue Steel Drywall Taping Knives provide outstanding flex, feel and work-ability. These are lightweight workhorse drywall knives which offer premium build quality, precision results and fast application rates.
