Honestly I don't think you CAN get linseed oil off of anything. I know people who have found dried linseed oil paint in their hair 2 months (and dozens of showers) after leaving a jobsite. Linseed oil does one thing very well- it permeates and infiltrates most any surface it comes into contact- that is why it is such a good preservative for wood, masonry and even metal. Getting it off your skin is tough enough using paint thinners, turpentine, etc, and really you're just diluting it (oh, and it's being partially absorbed into your skin too).

Why do you have to use linseed oil to knock in a bat?

We use linseed oil because it soaks into the the bat and makes it moist and knocking in becomes much easier but make sure to use raw linseed oil and not boiled linseed oil. The bat does not soak boiled linseed oil. Raw linseed oil not only increases the life of the bat but also makes the performance of the bat better.
