I use rag-in-a-can oiler on saws, planes and chisels… tools with straight parts. On more complicated shapes I use oil applied with a piiece of cotton or a rag. If I see that rust has grown in some tool, I deal with it with oil and a soft scotch brite pad.
I haven’t problems yet, and the ambient moisture indicator that I have in my (home) shop reads around 80% nine months a year.
