bladed weapon maintenance kit.

What sort of items should be in an ideal bladed weapons maintenance kit. The tools should be useful for the repair and maintenance of sharps, federschwerter and blunts, as well as other edged weapons, knives etc. What does everybody think to be essential, and ideal for such a kit.

I keep a bastard file for removing burrs on my blunts and sharps. I keep a scotchbrite pad for removing rust from both as well. I also have a selection of stones for edge maintenance and clp for rust prevention.

I keep a wood block and a ballpeen hammer to tighten hilts.
