kamisori handles rattan / ivy skin
Hi,
Some time ago, I bought myself an iwasaki kamisori, however I have been reluctant to use it, because as it comes without any proper handle ( just the raw steel), I don't feel comfortable at all.
Looking around SRP / Internet I have seen some people just use a blue plastic tosuke handle to them, others, and this is the more traditional method wrap the handle with some rattan. So far I have found some one on e-bay who sells the rattan for it, but does any body know the proper way to wrap the handle ?, as far as I have seen there seems to be different drawings that could be done with the rattan,
any Internet pointers / vids / manuals on how to wrap a kamisori handle ?
thanks in advance,
