War swords are typically made from carbon or stainless steel. Consider the weight, balance, and handle design to ensure comfort and control for your intended use.

How do I maintain my war sword?

Keep the blade clean and dry to prevent rust. If carbon steel, apply a light coat of oil regularly. Store it in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.

Are war swords battle-ready or just for display?

Some war swords are functional for training or cutting practice, while others are decorative. Check the blade material, edge sharpness, and construction details to determine its intended use.

How do I sharpen a war sword?

Use a sharpening stone or whetstone for fine edges, or a file for heavy sharpening. Follow the blade’s original bevel angle and sharpen evenly on both sides.

Can war swords be used for cutting practice?

Yes, if the sword is made for functional use. Ensure you have a safe, open space, use proper technique, and cut soft targets like tatami mats or water bottles to avoid damage.
