Product information "Maintenance Kit"
The maintainance kit has everything in it which you need for the must of care for your handmade sword. Comes with oil and powder.

Oil is used to prevent the rust of the sword. Oil makes a film of the oil between the sword body and the air, and it prevents the oxidization of the sword body. Oil dries in about some time. Therefore, reprint it in the new oil once in a month.
The thing which made a whetstone powder-shaped is being packed into the Uchiko. White powder appears from the Uchiko when a sword body is struck with the Uchiko. There are two use purposes. The Uchiko removes the old oil which sticks to the sword body. Furthermore, the Uchiko beautifies the surface of the sword.
Nuguigami: The Nuguigami is not just regular paper, it is high quality thick japanese paper for cleaning swords. It is used for wiping out old oil and wiping out the Uchiko.
The Mekuginuki is used to remove the Mekugi of the sword. The Mekuginuki can remove the Mekugi with the sharp part. In order to use the Mekuginuki for removing the Mekugi, the hammerhead part can be removed from the rest of the Mekuginuki.

How to take care for your sword:

How to take care of the sword after an Iaido practices or Tameshigiri will be explained with this topic. Take care of the sword after the practices always. If the care for the sword is neglected, a sword rusts in the sweat of the hand.

Face an edge toward the top, and pull out a sword slowly from the sheath. Then, be careful not to damage a sheath.

Hold the sword pulled out with your left hand. Then, remove old oil and dust from the sword with the Nuguigami. Put a Nuguigami on the Mune of the sword when wiping the sword, and wipe the sword toward the top from the bottom.

Pat a sword body with the Uchiko. Powder equally on the both sides of the sword body. Then, wipe the white powder with the new Nuguigami which is different from the paper used some time ago. Repeat this handle, and remove the blurs of the oil completely.

Apply new oil to the sword body, and put away a sword to the sheath. Put the oiling paper on the Mune of the sword when oiling the sword, and oil the sword toward the top from the bottom. Don't oil a sword in quantity very much. Oil equally the both sides of the sword body.

If the care for the sword is finished, put a sword in the sword bag, and keep it. Keep a sword in the place where it dries in the shade. How to take care of the sword of this topic isn't perfect. Therefore, remove the hilt once in three months, and care for the tang (Nakago) and so on.

The mekuginuki is not included in this cleaning set!

Ich bin mit dem Schwertpflegeset sehr zufrieden. Das Schwertpfegeset ist für den Anfang sehr gut und mit ihm konnte ich bislang mein Katana schön Pflegen. Zudem ist es nicht teuer und für jeden eine Empfehlung!

Für den Preiß erhält man ein gutes pflegeset nur leider kein Messing hammer vorhanden. Aber ansonsten ein super angebot hat sich gelohnt.

This product is okey overall. The oil is a bit dysfunctionaly bottled but other than that, it is fine. The fact that it does not have a mekugi hammer, makes this maintenance kit an average buy.

I WAS AMMAZED!I APPLIDE IT TO MY BANSHEE THAT IS RATHER ROUGH -BRUSHE FINNISHD AND FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS AND THE LONGER I WAS POLLISHING THE MORE SOFTER AND SMOOTHER IT BECAME AND WHEN I WAS FINNISHED I HAD A SPECTACULAR RESULT OF A NICE GLOS WITH A LITTLE DEEPER BRUSHING IN IT!FANTASTIC

Gutes Schwertpflege Set. Schon mit ein paar Tropfen Öl lässt sich das Schwert gut schützen.

Mir gefällt das Pflegeset . Sieht schön aus und es ist wirksam. Einfach toll .

June 11, 2010 19:07

Das Pflegeset ist echt sein Geld wert. Schnelle Leiferung perfekt.

November 7, 2009 16:04

Das Schwertpflegeset ist auf jeden Fall sein Geld wert - gerade in der Verbindung mit einem anständigen Rostentferner bekommt man hiermit jedes Problem in den Griff.

October 28, 2009 11:20

Ein super Produkt entfernt sogar aktiv Rost teilweise schon bei Erstbehandlung kleines Manko das Reispapier könnte ein wenig mehr sein. Wer es kauft um große Mengen an Schwert oder Rost zubehandeln sollte sich 1 oder 2 Bögen Reispapier gleich mitbestellen.

Gefällt mir sehr gut. Vier von fünf Sternen allemal wert.

Katana - Warrior Series
The Japanese swords of the Imperial Series have proven since their initial introduction almost two years ago, to be quite popular with many of our customers. Still, we are aware that there are some people who want a battle ready sword but hope to find one at a more affordable price. Our new Warrior Series addresses this problem directly. In our efforts to reduce the costliness of the blades, we have omitted the expensive mirror polishing that we used on the Imperial swords to create a new series of Japanese swords with a more practical finish. The Warrior Series swords are very handsome in their own right and share the same steel, heat treatment, and sharpness as their more expensive Imperial counterparts. Like the Imperial swords, they have Same covered, cord wrapped handles and quality fittings. The blade features 2 mekugi pegs in the handle and a bo hi on both sides of the blade. If you´re in the market for a strong, good looking, reasonably priced Japanese sword we know you´ll be happy to own one of these. Specifications: Weight without Saya: 1159 g Thick: 0.79 cm Blade: 74.3 cm Handle: 28.89 cm Same (Ray Skin). black braid cord with brass Menuki Steel: 1055 High Carbon Overall: 102.9 cm Scabbard: Black Lacquered Wood Scabbard
