R.W., where do you buy your stingray?
As an aside, I got some raw untanned ones from a Japanese sword dealer, same, and wonder if anyone has any suggestions on working the stuff.
He said soak it in water to make it pliable, but how would one cut it, are there any parts of the hide not useful, other ideas?
Thanks for any info, I have an order to wrap a handle with this stuff but never have worked it.
By the way, what's a good source for the wrapping tape other than Lohman? I don't need silk, cotton or polyester will do.
