vtzenov Posted February 17, 2022 Report Posted February 17, 2022 I bought 2 wakizashi from a different forum. Both of them have writing on the saya's. This is the first- Any idea what is it saying? I know it they are not very good pictures, but those are the best i can take now. Thank you so much, Val Quote
ChrisW Posted February 17, 2022 Report Posted February 17, 2022 When you unsheathe the blades, please make sure to lay them on a clean soft cloth of some kind. Never lay them on anything hard like concrete. And give the folks here a few minutes, and I am sure you'll get some translations for your sayagaki. Quote
vtzenov Posted February 17, 2022 Author Report Posted February 17, 2022 Sorry, the carpet in my reloading room looks like concrete- the stains are from gun and bike oil. Quote
ChrisW Posted February 17, 2022 Report Posted February 17, 2022 Ah I see! Just be sure to clean the blades gently with some high-purity isopropyl or mild soap and water (and then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth), then apply either choji or mineral oil to protect them from rust! Avoid anything abrasive or staining. Quote
