- Begin by wiping the blade with a soft cloth gently to remove dust or any particle. Ensure the blade is clean before proceeding.
- Next, apply a small amount of sword oil to a cloth and spread it evenly over the blade. This thin layer of oil will protect the blade from rust. Remember to wipe off any excess oil.
- Always handle your sword with clean hands and avoid touching the blade directly. Store your sword in a dry place, preferably in a scabbard, to prevent rust and warping. And yes, even fingerprints can cause rusting!
- Inspect your sword regularly for any early signs of damage so that you can act on them promptly to maintain the sword's condition or to prevent it from worsening. Prevention is better than cure.
