Ok you got me interested in that particular wax, I'll see if I can find some in Europe. My experience was mostly with waxes made in Spain and Romania.

Let me know if you can't find it there. I'll see about getting you some . It may or may not be what you need but it's worth trying. It should be available to you. It's used by hobbyists, antique people and museums so it's not just a knife product. It comes from the UK I think.

I've brought this up on more than one occasion. The company that makes that great metal polish we know as FLITZ also has a great metal wax too. I've used that FLITZ metal wax on so many different applications. And a coat of Flitz metal wax will usually hold up for at least 6 months or so. However if you use that particular knife for a lot of different hard jobs they I would recommend you doing it at least once a month if you are concerned about a non-stainless steel getting corroded or stained.

FLITZ has such a great line up for products for the maintenance of knives that I rarely look anywhere else except them and Sentry Solutions for all my knife maintenance needs.

I use Flitz wax as well. It applies a lot easier on rough surfaces due to the squeeze container and more liquid consistency. Good stuff!
