I would start with what look you want. Natural or synthetic, then color. It will help narrow down your choices because they're almost endless...
Edit: From what I recall from your previous posts. Before you do any of that, I would try shaving with it to see if you like it then mess around with wraps..Last edited by dinnermint; 05-13-2016 at 05:42 PM.

I've never had one of those, but I've admired some I've seen on the web. I would look at images of kamisoris and find one that I like the style of wrap. Then I would see if there is a youtube vid, or a tutorial, on how to wrap the handle correctly.
Through web tutorials I became very proficient at taping the bend (handlebars) on tour de france type bicycles. I can do it to where it is a professional job. That is what I'd shoot for if I had one of those razors.Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Thanked: 2Leather lace is the material I found that seems ok, I did not like the rust under the handle that I found so I sanded that down and sprayed zinc spray over it. I will shave w/o any wrapping while I do hunt a style that I like and go from there
