I don't think that I'd cut Danish oil with acetone just because it's an oil and not a polymer disolved in a solvent, primarily acetone. If anything I'd use turpentine, thin an oil with an oil. If I was going to the expense of Danish oil I'd just let the wood soak under vacuum. The Danish oil, like Linseed oil will polymerize as it cures.

As far as this topic generating so much controversy, surely you must know that that if you get three knifemakers together you're going to get at least four opinions on just about any subject.
