That is 80% INCORRECT. ① You Never use Uchiko in imitation Katana only real Katana you can use Uchiko one or two time for year. Never use Uchiko in your imitation Katana because Uchiko can damage the chrome of your Katana. ② In real katana it used oli to protects against rust BUT in imitation Katana only it used so that it does not make friction when putting it into the Saya because imitation Katana have chrome. ③ Imitation Katana never remove Tsuka, unless Katana manual say you can remove Tsuka. ④ For clean your imitation Katana you can used microfiber. 👍

If you clean it regularly it should never happen, and unfortunately as far as I know there isnt any way to remove rust without damaging, since the whole thing with rust is that it eats away at the metal. The best way to remove rust (that I know of) is with white vinegar and scrubbing it with aluminum foil, but that isn't exactly delicate.
