Product information "Maintenance Kit"

The Sword Maintenance Kit comes in a lightweight wooden storage box and includes all the essential tools needed for regular blade maintenance. The Uchiko powder ball contains fine polishing powder and is gently tapped along the blade to loosen old oil and surface impurities. The residue is then removed with the included soft microfiber cloth. Finally, apply a thin layer of clove oil to protect the blade against rust and corrosion.

Regular maintenance helps prevent fingerprints, moisture damage, and other stains that can permanently affect the blade's finish. This maintenance kit is an essential accessory for collectors, Iaido practitioners, and sword enthusiasts alike.

Clove Oil (Tsubaki or Clove Oil)

The oil protects the blade from rust by forming a thin protective barrier against humidity and moisture in the air. As the protective film gradually evaporates over time, it is recommended to reapply the oil at least once a month.

Uchiko Powder Ball

The Uchiko powder ball contains fine polishing powder. By gently tapping both sides of the blade, it loosens old oil, fingerprints, and fine contaminants. When used together with the microfiber cloth, it helps restore a clean and polished blade surface.

Microfiber Cloth

The soft microfiber cloth is used to remove the Uchiko powder, oil residue, fingerprints, and other contaminants from the blade. It is also ideal for applying a thin, even coat of maintenance oil across the entire blade.

Brass Mekugi Remover (Mekuginuki)

The brass Mekuginuki is used to remove the bamboo retaining pins (Mekugi) from the sword handle, allowing the sword to be safely disassembled for maintenance. The brass hammer head can be unscrewed from the handle for use.


Sword Maintenance Instructions

Clean and maintain your sword after every use, whether it has been used for Iaido practice, Tameshigiri, or is simply displayed as part of your collection.

1. Remove Old Oil

Use the microfiber cloth to wipe the blade thoroughly from the tip toward the handle, removing old oil and light surface contamination.

2. Apply Uchiko Powder

Gently tap both sides of the blade with the Uchiko powder ball. The fine polishing powder helps lift old oil and dirt from the blade's surface.

3. Wipe the Blade Clean

Carefully wipe away all Uchiko powder using the microfiber cloth. Repeat the process if necessary until the blade is completely clean.

4. Apply Fresh Oil

Apply a small amount of clove oil to the microfiber cloth and spread it evenly over both sides of the blade, working from the tip toward the handle. Only a very thin protective film should remain on the blade.

5. Regular Maintenance

Every 3–4 months, it is recommended to disassemble the sword and clean the tang (Nakago) in the same manner before applying a light coat of oil.

Schönes Set , etwas wenig öl aber es reich auf jedenfalls eine weile . :D

Sehr gutes Pflegeset. Es enthält alles, was man benötigt, um sein Schwert/seine Schwerter vor Korrosion und Rost zu schützen. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen.

Dieses Schwertpflegeset ist wirklich sehr gut und beinhaltet alles, was man braucht. Wer ein gepflegtes Schwert haben will, sollte zuschlagen.

Es pflegt das Schwert wirklich gut. Die Holzschatulle ist nicht perfekt sieht aber trotzdem gut aus.

da kann man nichts schlechtes sagen die kiste kahm ohne schäden bei mir an , kann man nur weiter empfehlen

Ein super Schwertpflegeset. Es hat alles was man braucht und tut seinen Dienst hervorragend. Empfehlenswert ist es jedoch, sich dazu noch eine Ölflasche zu beschaffen, da die enthaltende teilweise ausläuft. Allerdings ist das halb so wild, da die Flasche gut isoliert in einer Folie verpackt ist. Also keine sorge euer Set bekommt nichts vom eventuell auslaufenden Öl ab.

May 24, 2012 01:57

sollte man sich als schwertliebhaber unbedingt zulegen.

Ein Schwertpflegeset von guter Qualität, allerdings ist kein Nuguigami enthalten sondern ein gelbes Reinigunstuch(siehe unteres Bild)

December 3, 2011 00:00

die oberen Abbildungen stimmen nicht alle überein mit der tatsächlich gelieferten Ware, das kleine Bild unten stimmt aber. Das ist ja schon was irritierend. Es ist kein Reinigungspapier (Nuguigami) dabei sondern ein gelber Flies.

November 14, 2011 08:30

Alles drin, was man zum reinigen eines Schwertes benötigt. Einzig die Ölflasche war etwas ausgelaufen, aber nur minimal. Habe mir das Pflegeset in Kombination mit einer zusätlichen Flasche Öl gekauft.

Bokken
Bokken ("wooden sword") is the Japanese term in kenjutsu for a katana shaped out of wood. Used to train samurai in feudal Japan, it is now used as a training weapon in various Japanese sword arts. Some other martial arts (and all pedants) call it a bokuto ("wooden sword").A suburito is a bokken designed for suburi. Suburi, literally "bare cutting", are solo cutting exercises. Suburito are thicker and heavier than normal bokken so that you have to develop either good technique, strong muscles or both to wield one. Their weight does however tend to make them poorly balanced, consequently they are not used for paired practise.Miyamoto Musashi was famed for his use of the bokken in actual combat. Details: Total length: 98.5 cm Handle: 24.7cm Weight: 0.46 kg including tsuba
