Didn't see that, but here are some search results for pure liquid
paraffin:

Should do just as good, it stays, and cheaper than camelia oil. Just don't
use it for sharpening, might clog up a stone, not that I know for sure. I
like the idea of "pure" non-smoking, compared to dirty sooty cheap lamp
oil that "has paraffin in it".

Looking at the MSDS and whatnot it looks like "liquid paraffin" is
marketing-speak for mineral oil.

What is the TOH hour?
