Default Shovel handles

What is best to apply to wooden shovel and rake handles that stay
outside all year? I just leave the extra tools in the mulch pile and
they are always there when I need them but the weather takes it`s toll.
I tried boiled linseed oil two weeks ago and it still isn`t dry. The
best thing i`ve found so far is used motor oil.
Thanks for any advice
