I like the use of the incense to change the mood.
Curious to know if the saya itself ever needs to be cleaned or if even possible? Probably moot as the blade should be wiped clean before insertion but figured I would ask anyway.
Great content as usual Norcross Sensei. Thank you sir.

For such an old tool, I'm curious what the menuki are made of, and what form did they take. Any insight would be appreciated. Stay safe!

Designed after three side by side Sakura flowers. Not sure of metal. Brass, copper?
