I will probably do random videos as well as how to videos. I play guitar and trumpet I may upload a few videos. Feel free to contact me! If any recommendations you should probably go to my blog and contact me through google plus. I don't really get the messages on here very well. Tuesdays and wednesdays I will probably post only music since I am so busy. I will try to post how to videos once or twice a week hopefully more!
PLEASE pinch the back of your blade and stroke the rag down metal. & NEVER face the blade towards you whilst cleaning it. These 2 simple things will prevent you from ever being cut cleaning
What if your sword’s colored? I don’t wanna ruin my sword’s blade, and it’s blue Also, there’s a better way to wipe off your sword, that’s not only faster, but minimizes risk of getting cut. First, put a cloth on over your hand and shape your hand like a C. Then put it over the dull part of the sword and close your hand enough to have a firm grip on the blade. It’s supposed to resemble a katana sandwich. Then move your cloth along the blade. Done right, you should be able to wipe the blade in a single motion without a cut.
@@mrink104ini katana swords are expensive I got my sword from BudK today it was ame no habakiri from one piece its red and a grayish color on the blade also is this video real cause I barley got it and I had to save up slot of money since the shipping is 12 dollars and I don’t wanna ruin it because I listened to a video that may or may not be fake
The proper maintenance with the uchiko ball, and clove oil should take care of it. But I’m pretty sure this can do it too. (I personally don’t recommend it though)
@@mattgamer0846 are you trying to clean something in particular off your blade? If not, if you're just maintaining it, use a microfiber cloth to wipe off all the old oil, then put some new oil on another cloth or paper towel and wipe a new layer of oil onto the blade. You can use the same towel to lightly wipe off any excessive oil... you just need a very thin coat remaining on the blade. That's it.
@@davec3651 well, actually my sword is a replica Katana and the blade is dull, I won't use it for any kind of impacts, just for display and sometimes playing with it Edit: as a replica katana it doesn't have those two nails that every legit katana have in the handle
Is it a must to oil the blade? When I received my swords they were oiled but I cleaned it off after a while since it collected dust. So my question is? Does one have to oil it even if it’s always on display and never used??
If you have your katana primarily for display purposes, I’d recommend the maintenance process once every two months. If for training, you probably should every week. (My personal recommendations)
I have found that by using circular cosmetic applicators work great on Katana blades along other steel blades, much easier to control and apply the necessary oils and cleaning solutions. Give them a try, as stated, they work great. Use very little oil for protection. Too much only contaminates the inside of the swords's sheathe.
Hi my friend. With all my respect, please learn some more how really you have to take care of a samuray blade. You are doing it in a very wrong and so far dangerous way. Please do not get it personally. Best regards Val An acredeted member of To-Ken Assosiation of Great Britain, Collector and Restorer of Antique Samurai Swords
i just found my old kodak camera that has all my pictures of me from when i was little. i’ve tried turning it on, but it won’t. i don’t have a charger. i don’t know what kind of it is, i just know it’s a kodak. i’ve tried everything to fix it, but i still can’t fix it.
