## Repairkit & First-aid kit (5)

For safety reasons, we recommend every Naginata practioner to always bring two additional bundles to practice:

1. Naginata repair/maintenance kit
2. First aid/care kit

Naginata maintenance kit:

1. Sandpaper (120 grit or finer; pro tip: a loop for a sanding machine lasts 10 years)
2. A ruler or anything that lets you measure "15 cm" and "17 cm" for your kissaki, sendanmaki
3. Utility knife for trimming habu
4. White tape for sendanmaki
5. Transparent tape for kissaki, ebu
6. Pencil

First-aid kit:

1. Band-aids (I find finger band-aids very useful, but any band-aids will do)
2. Tweezers
3. Nail scissors
4. Luxofix and/or sports tape
5. Paracetamol and/or other painkillers
6. Safety pins
7. Bandages

If you have any questions, feel free to ask your senpai (senior). But the idea is that everyone brings something like this to every training!
