Sorry for the "shouting", but graphite has probably more or less ruined more knuckles and caused more problems than any other know lubricant on knuckles. I vote with Charles Ball: teflon powder. Another acceptable lubricant is "unscented" talc. It has to be applied more frequently, but it will cause no damage.
