Martial arts in which training with katana is used include iaijutsu, battojutsu, iaido, kenjutsu, kendo, ninjutsuand Tenshin Shoden Katori Shinto-ryu. If mishandled in its storage or maintenance, the katana may become irreparably damaged. The blade should be stored horizontally in its sheath, curve down and edge facing upward to maintain the edge. It is extremely important that the blade remain well-oiled, powdered and polished, as the natural moisture residue from the hands of the user will rapidly cause the blade to rust if not cleaned off. The traditional oil used is choji oil (99% mineral oil and 1% clove oil for fragrance). Similarly, when stored for longer periods, it is important that the katana be inspected frequently and aired out if necessary in order to prevent rust or mold from forming (mold may feed off the salts in the oil used to polish the blade). If you don’t like the original mountings, you can choose the favorite ones from the options. Handle wrapping cord and saya cord should be the same color.
