1: Soft cellulose cloths for sword cleaning<\/h4>\n

\nPreferably a cellulose cloth or similar natural material that has not been treated with chemicals. The cloth is needed to remove dirt, old oil and sword powder. A cloth that binds substances well should therefore be used.
\nTo prevent old soiling from being reapplied to the blade, it makes sense to use cloths that can be disposed of after a few uses. This is the only way to ensure that old dirt is not reapplied to the blade. Suitable Cellulose wipes<\/a><\/strong> can be found in our shop.\n<\/p>\n

2: \"Powder\" for sword training<\/h4>\n

\nThis is contained in a tassel and together with it is called uchiko. It is used to bind moisture, old oil and dirt and remove them from the blade surface. A distinction should be made between talcum powder and limestone powder. You can find out when it makes sense to use which and more details in our Article about sword powder<\/a><\/strong>.\n<\/p>\n

3: A soft cotton cloth for applying sword oil<\/h4>\n

\nA soft cotton cloth should be used to apply sword oil. The ideal cloth absorbs oil, but also releases it again. In contrast to the cloth in point 1, it should not bind the oil but release it onto the blade in the right quantity. This requires a suitable fabric structure. As it is only used when the blade has already been completely cleaned, this cloth can be used again and again. Suitable Cotton cloths for sword care<\/a><\/strong> you can buy from us.\n<\/p>\n

4: Sword oil for blade care<\/h4>\n

\nThis is often referred to as choji oil. This is actually the name for clove oil, but the term is often also used for other heavy oils.
\nSome sword oils on the market, \"insider tips\" and household remedies are hazardous to health and\/or not suitable for sword care.
\nWe provide you with the specially developed sword care product Blade oil from Toshiro Swords<\/a><\/strong>.\n<\/p>\n
