I'm going to buy a 60 dollar sword and i'm worried about cleaning it?

I%26#039;m looking at it this way;





1. i%26#039;m 14, i know i shouldn%26#039;t be using swords but i know what i%26#039;m doing (don%26#039;t ask)


2. I%26#039;m looking to be using it as a kind of way to cool me down, i%26#039;ll be probably practicing cutting down some bamboo, or this weird(but very nice to slice down via sword) tree


3. it%26#039;ll be used about maybe onc a month, until summer





Now, my problem begins, how do i keep the darn thing clean?





oh yes, the sword;





[Cotton cord wrapped hardwood handle.


High carbon steel blade w/ hand honed edge.


Full tang battle ready sword (Not a %26quot;display replica%26quot;).


Copper guard material (Tsuba).


Hardwood scabbard (Saya) w/ glossy lacquered finish


Blade Length: 27.5 in.


Overall Length: 40 in


Dual bamboo peg construction.


This sword can be dismantled for care or display.]





anywho, from what i%26#039;ve read this a pretty good basic usable sword, but it%26#039;ll be hard to clean





if you can give me some great hints, i would really appreciate them


and maybe tell me what to buy too

Have you heard of the term %26quot;you get what you pay for%26quot;? Even though it is advertised sounding like an expensive traditionally made sword, it is still not safe for use and should still only hang on the wall and look pretty. Any contact with a weapon like this is HIGHLY discouraged and can lead to serious injury. It doesn%26#039;t matter what age you are. Anyone using a cheap sword like how you intend can potentially hurt themselves. Even more so without any proper training.
