thanks to photoelectric, i now have a small sample of victorinox multi-tool oil. it turns out that it's actually polyolefin mix. lubricants with polyolefins at their base seem to be copolymers typically made of hydrocarbon monomers that are primarily 1-decene? it's definitely not sweet. it has a strong smell that's a bit like wax. at room temperature, it's definitely more viscous than krytox GPL 106 or 107. it doesn't really feel like it has any solids in it, and i had it tagged as a minerol oil (not too far off base) before i took a look at the MSDS.
it's definitely very different from the PFPE, PTFE combination that is krytox, but it's also not a grease. it seems a bit like it's optimized to coat objects, like the joints in multi-tools to provide corrosion resistance. lubridicity doesn't really seem all that great...
more to come as i play around with it.
