Cleaning Kit – Katana

This cleaning kit is essential for any enthusiast or collector of Japanese swords who wants to keep their katana in perfect condition. It includes:

• A Mekugi-nuki hammer: to safely adjust the handle’s fastenings.
• Two bamboo mekugi: essential replacement pegs to ensure the blade is securely fixed into the handle.
• Double-sided sandpaper: perfect for removing micro-scratches without damaging the steel.
• A soft cloth: designed to gently polish the blade’s surface and remove impurities.

Taking care of your katana is crucial to preserving its beauty and preventing oxidation. Regular maintenance ensures its longevity and strength, while honouring traditional Japanese sword care practices.

Please note: This kit does not include choji oil or Uchiko (chalk ball), as these liquid and powder-based items are prohibited in air transport. Their inclusion also increases the risk of customs blockage.
