Always clean your swords after touching the blade

EDIT: If you think this is because the steel is bad, you don't understand sword steels

[cave___]

imagine breaking into a sword shop but instead of stealing you aggressively fondle all the swords

[RikkiSan]

It blows my mind how swords can be so precise and deadly and resilient yet be so sensitive at the same time

[peterbaillif]

You can tell this dude is absolutely seething with rage lol

[SillyNacho]

Swords in the medieval era: I will cut down countless foes and win wars!

Swords today: I-If you touch me I rust!

“I touched one of your swords. Im not telling you which one. Good day, Sir.”

[gideonimolina]

On the bright side, you can quickly find them if needed.

The customer was a "rotter"
Some people's sweat acid is stronger than others.

“I touched all your sword blades, I thought you should know”

[eduwinmispvtltd]

Offer gloves in your store before the customer start touching. It's better for customers as well.

[mikejones-ndni]

I'm sure he didn't tell you because he didn't know it would do that

[mastertk]

That is on you bro. Letting strangers touch your blade.

Always assume they were touched if they were in a spot where they could be touched. When it comes to keeping swords like this clean, this is the best rule of thumb to follow

The tuners on my guitar were like that, when I bought the guitar. It was sitting for about four years before I bought it. I used blue magic and it got the finger prints off. Granted I'm sure removing finger prints from black chrome is easier than polished steel.

Have a "DONT TOUCH THE BLADES" sticker around your sword racks

[mpa]

That looks like the most heaviest and blunt sword I've ever seen.

[Knudby]

Thank god my IKEA kitchen knife can handle to stay dirty for a few days at a time when i forget to wash it right away

[ozylocz]

You should definitely have a sign to not even unsheathe the blades, have them come up to you if they want to inspect it closer. That way you can clean it if they touch the blade, explain what it does and answer any other questions they may have.

[notamouse]

This is why you need to oil your blades and/or protect them with zinc anodes in the scabbard or display setup.

[Palisade]

Can you imagine all the people this sword would touch in a battlefield? The horror!

[dubeeyubee]

This is the kinda guy to hand you an object JUST to tell you you’re holding or touching it wrong
