Johnson’s paste wax is tried and true.
But I don’t sand it after finishing. If I do, it means i screwed up the finish.

Boiled linseed oil...
' The difference between Raw and the Boiled Linseed Oils is that Raw Linseed Oil has a longer drying time, where as Boiled Linseed Oil has been treated by blowing hot air through the liquid - this shortens its drying time considerably. It is recommended that Boiled Linseed Oil is used for woods other than oak.'

Tung oil
It does not get sticky like linseed and does not darken the wood.
If the wood is exposed to weather clear matte finish spray polyurethane
