Leatherman Signal fast opening with lubricant.

BUT, rewatching the clip i notice that the way he does it depend on the paracord he put : notice how he build up pressure with his thumb to flick it

@@zyklonb1287 you put white paracord on and tied it with what?.. Asking for a friend 👀

What did you put on it?

[@zyklonb1287]

I just put a bit of lubricant oil.

[@rageoftheredphoenix]

@@zyklonb1287What is the name of that lubricant? Can I use old natural coconut oil or 3 and 1? Wd40? Or machine oil? Maybe knife sharpening oil?
