Swords
Most of the decorative swords that we sell are made of stainless steel, which is generally easy to care for.
Cleaning, oiling and general caring for swords is something that people have dealt with since ancient times. Take pride in caring your sword. A simple regular maintenance of the sword will be something that pays off for many years to come.
Asia countries have high humidity. A regular cleaning of your swords will help to maintain the beautiful look of the sword. We recommend a regular maintenance every 2 to 3 months or more often if you frequently handle your sword.
TopRegular Maintenance
After handling your sword, take a soft, dry cloth (preferably those without lint) to clean off any marks that you may have leave on the blade and handle. You may then dabbed a little metal glow (use no more than a peanut size) on the blade and clean it off with a soft, dry cloth. After you are done with the polishing, buff it again to ensure you remove all trace of the residue. Volia! Your sword will be as good as new!
Wooden part of the sword can be maintained through the use of furniture polisher.
TopLong term storage
Should you be putting the sword away for keeping, we suggest that you apply a thin layer of oil on the blade to protect it. You can also wrap the whole sword in plastic to protect it from moisture. Keep some silica gel in the box to help keep moisture level low.
TopOther care tips
- Minimize touching the blade. Acids from the fingers etch the blade.
- NEVER use water or soap, as they would leave nasty spots on the blade.
- For long term storage, keep or display your blade out of the leather sheath.
- For swords with wooden scabbards, leave them inside to prevent the scabbard from warping.
- Do NOT bang your sword against any hard object to avoid nicking or breaking.
