I have used mineral oil (sold in pharmacies as a laxative) to good affect. Baby oil will also work, but you get the perfume smell.

Mark,
I've been using mineral oil on the blades of my knives and swords for quite a while, I just didn't know if it was safe to use on the horn grips or not. Thank you for your answer.
