Niwaki Tool Maintenance Set

The Niwaki Tool Maintenance Set brings together everything you need to care for your tools properly—simple, effective, and rooted in time-honoured Japanese practice.

To prepare your tools, the Mini Clean Mate removes sap, rust, and grime with ease. Used damp, it restores blades by lifting built-up residue, ensuring a clean surface ready for sharpening and oiling.

For sharpening, the #1000 grit Niwaki Sharpening Stone offers the ideal balance for routine care. Its thoughtfully designed concave edge mirrors the curve of secateur blades, helping maintain the correct angle for consistent, professional results, while flat faces handle straight blades and remove burrs with ease.

At its heart is Niwaki Camellia Oil, a traditional solution for protecting carbon steel from rust and deterioration. Cold-pressed from Camellia oleifera seeds and blended with white mineral oil, it leaves a smooth, refined finish without greasy residue. Odourless and tasteless, it’s equally suited to garden tools and kitchen knives.

The Niwaki Oil Dispenser ensures clean, precise application every time. Simply fill halfway with Camellia Oil and the internal wadding delivers a light, even coating exactly where it’s needed—no mess, no waste—making regular maintenance quick and effortless.

Together, this straightforward routine—clean, sharpen, protect—keeps secateurs, shears, clippers, and knives performing at their best. With regular care, your tools stay sharp, rust-free, and reliable for years to come.
