Hi,

I'll be getting my Viceroy in a few weeks and I'm wondering if you guys can tell me a bit about what I need to know to take care of it, or a have link to where it has already been said.

I'm mainly wondering about type of oil and polish, if polish is needed. I would hate to alter the finish and have a shiny spot on an otherwise satin finished blade.

Thanks,
Lance

Hi Patrick

I just wred your maintenance articel, but i still do have one question:
Do blackened and/or blued fittings (like on my new :D armour Class 16 century hand and a half http://www.armourclass.com/Data/Pages/17Century_2.htm )need other treatment then uncolored steel fittings?

In other words is this black and /or blue color only on the outside and there for easely polliswed away??
Or is the color throughout?

Maybe the answer would be a good thing to ad to the articel??

The black stuff is only on the outside.

Does this mean you already have the sword? Any pictures? How does it handle? Is it sharp? :surprised:

Thanks Patrick.

I asked Armour Class about the bluing and it's "heat blued with a torch" So I quess I can pollis it, but maybe not to often.

And yes Anton I do own the sword now :D :D
but no pictures (yet) You want some?

For more info; I have wrote something about it ,on the "First impressions of a newbe" thread.
