Microcrystalline Tool Wax for Knives & Hand Tools

Maverick Wax
A small-batch, hand-mixed microcrystalline wax formulated specifically for protecting steel tools and knives from moisture, fingerprints, and light corrosion.
This is a shop wax, not a cosmetic and not a novelty product. It applies thin, buffs clean, and leaves a durable, dry protective film without the haze and residue common to automotive paste waxes.
What it’s for
- Carbon steel knives
- Hand tools
- Saws and saw plates
- Tool hardware and exposed steel
- Finished wood handles (light application)
What it’s made from
- Microcrystalline wax
- Carnauba wax
- Odorless mineral spirits
No fillers. No dyes. No fragrance.
How to use 1. Apply a very thin coat with a cloth 2. Let haze for 5–10 minutes
3. Buff dry
That’s it.
Important notes
- Not for food-prep or kitchen knives
- Contains petroleum distillates
- Rags used with wax should be laid flat to dry
Shipping & warm weather
In warm conditions the wax may soften during transit. If this occurs, simply set the tin upright at room temperature for 1–2 hours before opening. The wax will re-set with no loss of performance.
Each tin is sealed for shipping and packed to prevent leaks.
