It's not difficult to avoid topics you don't want to see. X is at the top of your browser.

Your response is expected, no reason, cutting corners just to cut corners. Time for me to follow suit and block and move on.

This is akin to using glue instead of tokonole to burnish your edges because you saw it in a video, or using gum trag and calling it the best because Chuck Dorsett uses it. your "take a picture of rancid leather" speaks for itself. Other than going rancid, attracting rodents and being cheap, what benefit does cutting corners get you when you decide to use olive oil?

I don't often see someone so confidently giving bad advice. Olive oil is for salad, not leather. Any professional leatherworker is going to just laugh at you if you tell them you use olive oil instead of something like neatsfoot. It does go rancid. I'm not sure if this misinformation is trying to hamstring 'competition' or genuine ignorance. Cut corners all you want, but I wouldn't toot it as advice.

Name one reputable maker that uses olive oil or veg oil on their goods. I'll wait.
