usually the swords sheath has some special polish in it so when you take it out and put it back in it polishes it automatically.

mine has wax 4 some reason, and its all over the blade. it prob. needs cleaned 2, but idk how 2 do that either.

i read that you have to buy a polishing set.

first use windex to get the wax off(btw if you have wax on your blade you might be unsheathing it incorrectly ) and 2nd you should buy polish and use choji oil and talcom powder here is a link for the kit http://www.bugei.com/subcategory_12.htm
