Product information "Sword Maintenance Kit"
The maintenance kit comes in a wooden box containing powder, oil and paper to clean the blade. This maintenance kit is very useful when it comes to the obligatory sword cleaning. Should you not maintain your sword or maintain it in a improper way, finger prints and other stains will appear on the metal which will be very hard to remove.

The Oil is used to prevent the sword from rusting. Your sword is going to rust when it is permanently exposed to humidity. Oil prevents your sword from rusting as it covers the blade and thus seals off the air. As oil dries up after some time it is advisory to apply new oil at least once a month.
The powder ball (uchiko) has two functions: it removes the remaining oil on the blade and enhances the blade surface when used in combination with the nuguigami.
The cleaning paper (nuguigami) is special, high-quality, thick, Japanese paper. It is used to remove remaining oil from the blade and (in combination with the uchiko) to polish the blade.
The brass hammer (mekuginuki) is used to take out the mounting pegs (mekugi) in order to disassemble the sword. The hammer head can be screwed off.

Maintenance instructions:

Please clean and maintain your sword after each use. It doesn´t matter whether you used it for Iaido training or tameshigiri. Should you not maintain your sword it is going to rust sooner or later.

First of all, remove the old, remaining oil from the blade with the nuguigami thoroughly. Be careful to hold the edge away from you.

Secondly, use the uchiko and apply the powder to both sided of the blade. Next, wipe away the white powder with the nuguigami. This way you will clean your blade and remove any remaining oil. Repeat this step until the blade is thoroughly clean.

In the end, apply fresh oil to the blade with a cloth. Please make sure that both sides of the blade will be covered equally from tip to guard. There should be a thin oil film all over the blade.

You should disassemble your sword about every 3 or 4 month to maintain your tang. The blade maintenance guidelines apply for the tang as well.

The mekuginuki is not included in this cleaning set!

Das set selbst ist schön etwas wenig Öl aber das ist Ok nur sind bei mir die Kenji etwas unschön bzw nicht alle sauber

July 10, 2013 09:08

Die Kiste kam unbeschädigt an, der Inhalt ist auch in Ordnung, abgesehen davon, dass etwas Öl aus dem nicht ganz dichten Fläschchen getropft ist. War nicht viel und deshalb auch nicht gravierend.

April 30, 2013 10:11

Der gesamte Inhalt, sowie die Kiste wurde unbeschädigt geliefert. Das enthaltene Material erfüllt seinen Zweck optimal und mit dem Öl lässt sich jede Klinge vor Rost bewahren! Zur Pflege jeglicher Blankwaffe geeignet.

gutes pflegeset für den start. öl lässt sich mit dem papier sehr schön auftragen. einzige kleine kritik dass das puder der Uchiko bissl rauskommt, somit musste erst mal alles bissl gereinigt werden.

May 12, 2010 18:04

Ein Schwertpflegeset von guter Qualität und in einer recht dekorativen Holzschatulle geliefert.

February 12, 2009 17:09

Das Set ist gut in der Handhabung und es ist leicht das Öl auf einer Katanaklinge aufzutragen. Allerdings ist nur das enthalten was das eine Bild zeigt (mit roter Punderquaste) und kein Messinghammer zur entfernung der Mekugi. Ansonsten ist es auch schön anzuschauen, dank Holzkästchens.

Roronoa Zoro Katana One Piece – handforged
Roronoa Zoro: Zoro is a skilled swordsman, able to use one, two and three swords in varying attack styles, although he is most proficient with the fictional sword technique Santōryū (literally: three sword style), clutching his third sword in his mouth. Zoro is somehow able to speak with his sword held in his mouth; Eiichiro Oda has stated that it is his heart that allows him to do so. Though not a samurai, he maintains his own code of honor. His goal is to become the greatest swordsman in the world, by beating the current greatest swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk. Over the course of the story Zoro has used many different swords, carrying three at a time with one, the Wadō Ichimonji, remaining with him through the entire series thus far. His other notable swords are Sandai Kitetsu, Yubashiri (Yu-bashiri in the Viz translation) and the recently obtained Shuusui which replaced the broken Yubashiri. This sword has a handforged sharp blade.

Bokken
Our new improved Japanese Training Swords are closely modeled after our world-famous Warrior series swords. Featuring an intricately detailed imitation cord wrap grip - molded in high impact polypropylene - they offer superior grip and comfort as well as more realistic training potential for the modern Martial Artist. Hundreds of years ago, the Japanese discovered a simple truth; that to become a good swordsman you'll have to practice, a great deal. To become a great swordsman you’ll have to practice with a "live blade". And during the period between "good" and "great", you should spend your time building your skills and confidence enough to wield a razor sharp Katana safely and effectively. To accomplish this, the Japanese relied on a simple wooden sword called a "bokken" for much of their training. It was made from the super tough wood of the Japanese White Oak, a wood they called Kashi. The swords produced from this wood had the advantage of replicating the size, weight and feel of a steel sword, while minimizing the possibility of causing grievous or permanent injury to those who used it. Authentic Kashi wood Bokkens are still used today, but are becoming quite costly. They also have the disadvantages, being made of wood, that they may rot, crack split or splinter. Cold Steel's solution to these dilemmas was to design a synthetic substitute, low in price and impervious to the elements. Our Bokken and our new Wakazashi Bokken are made of the heaviest grade polypropylene available and closely duplicate a real Katana and Wakazashi in length, size, weight and feel. While they're not quite as rigid as wood, they have the advantages of being virtually unbreakable and remarkably stiff and cut resistant. Specifications: Weight: 19.9 oz. Blade Thickness: 1" Blade Length: 30" Handle: 11 1/2" Long. Material: Polypropylene Overall: 41 1/2" This is an item from the Cold Steel program in 2015.
