where is this knife made ?

Most recent one is Taiwan. It says so on the knife.

How good is this knife for self defense?

Great knife. Excellent utility, lightweight and durable. Fantastic grip... However, asking this question, I'd advise you to help yourself and seek training rather than ask the internet.

What oil should i use for the pivot?

Benchmade makes an oil. Otherwise you can use pretty much any lubricating oil you would like. Also if it is getting stiff, make sure the torque that holds the blade has not over tightened.
