Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everyone should own one of these.

My father had a butter dish like this. As far as I can remember he had one of these when I was a kid. My father was a depressed child. When I say he had one, I don't mean he always had it. I mean he always had the same thing. He's had one my whole life. As he left, I clung to his tools (and oiler). In my 20's I started a car radio shop (dad was away) and many of my dad's tools found their way into the shop - a drill press, a grinding wheel, hand tools, tool cabinets he built himself and of course oil can. I sold the business when I was 40 and the tools and equipment and oiler stayed with the business and the new owners. At 40 I went to school and started working as a professional - no more tools, no more oiler. Now, years later, I'm working on cars with my own son (like my father used to be with me) and I've realized that oil doesn't always have to come from a can. This one looked exactly like my dad's, so I chose it. I filled it up and tried it and it's just awesome. Runs smoothly (well lubricated) and does not leak. My son seems to like it. I named it after my father, an old-fashioned Italian name. I'm so glad I did. Ah, I just remembered. But in any case, this is a good oiler.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
