I had the same concerns when I started collecting. One thing that really helped me was buying a few pieces from hand-forged katana because they come with decent care guidance. I keep mine in a dry, low-humidity spot and lightly wipe the blades now and then. Also, avoiding bare-hand contact with the blade too much prevents oils from messing up the finish. Little steps like these make a huge difference over time.
