Musashi Japanese Samurai Warrior Katana Sword Maintenance Care Cleaning Kit

This is a nice little sword maintenance kit. It came with everything it said it would: The oil, rice papers, powder ball, etc.. The only thing I had an issue with is the bottle with the oil was only filled about 15 ml, when the bottle itself is 20-25 ml, but for the price I bought at ($13), it is well worth the value.

This is a great kit! The oil bottle was not damaged with no spills, so did came with bamboo mekugi, the uchiko ball was still intact and wrapped tight to the stick, and white plastic container was good! It helps all lot! I tested out on how much days can the oil last and it lasted for 2-3 weeks for a rust invasion! So I don’t really mind doing maintenance on my katana every once a week just to be safe! I actually enjoy doing maintenance on my katana! Hope this helps!

Never had another kit to compare this to but I received what I expected from reviews I've read. Box is cheap but it serves its purpose. Unlike other reviews that I saw that most of their choji oil spilled, my bottle was full. They may have fixed the problem because mine was actually sealed. Also most people say they did not receive the menuki pegs, I received those as well. The pegs however are not the best as they are perfect cylinders instead of being tapered where one side is smaller than the other. For the price if you need or want a kit, this one is fine for the price. Took a week and a half to get from Georgia to texas but it was within the specified time of delivery.So after further review of this kit not sure if that big of a deal but the oil I personally do not believe is real choji oil. Not to say the oil is bad for your sword but I also purchased choji oil separately which is nothing but light mineral oil with a pinch of clove oil for scent. Mineral oil is clear which the choji oil I purchased is and it smells like clove. The oil with the kit however is yellowish in color and smells like your typical machine oil or clipper oil. It is also very thin or watery feeling which I'm not sure is good or bad but my choji oil actually feels like oil or to say is quite a bit thicker. Not to say the oil I bought separately is better but it's what I used instead of what was in the kit. I will still try the oil out on some cheaper knives I have and not to say it's not ok for your katana. Just saying there is no clove oil and it's not mineral oil. Machine oil to my thinking which I would guess is still ok to use.

good for my swords wish it have bigger more sword oil.

Comes with all required tools for general maintenance of a katana. Zero complaints of any materials that are includedProduct presentation is also excellentIf you own a Tachi or Odachi (both most common types of katana) then this is exactly what you need to ensure the tang is always in pristine shape

Does what it does

This is a pretty cheap China made product, in a cheap wooden box, but guess what, it's inexpensive (cheap)! Like many, all I really wanted was the little hammer... and that is decent quality, brass, and did just as it was supposed to. I was glad to get a pair of spare mekugi pegs included, the rest of the stuff I had no interest in. The oil in a cheap plastic bottle with a cheap sticker label, I dont trust the quality... and then the powder ball, too much mess and again don't trust the quality/composition. Throwaway items to me.The box, super cheap light wood and I ended up hammering it against my tsuba since my handle was really stuck on the blade. It worked, the box is broken but at least it served a related purpose and the sword is disassembled.As I said, the hammer is fine and worth the keep and price. Disassembles into a punch, head, and handle. The screw on head might loosen and turn a little while in use, but it's manageable and usable. That said, you can probably get the same result out of any proper sized punch and a hard object to tap on it.

Arrived packaged nicely. First thing I checked was to see if the oil leaked (read people complaining about that). Everything was there and oil bottle was sealed. Haven't used it yet but it seems like a nice little sword cleaning kit.
