Tsuka Ito wrap

[Mickey]

Where can I purchase a roll of handle wrap for Tanto blades? I bought a roll years ago from a dealer at the Blade show in Atlanta, but it is almost gone.

You can buy it on eBay or Amazon and I recently found a place that sells a nice leather by the yard but I can't remember what it was lol.

Did you ever find this wrap? I'm looking for some also. I've seen silk advertised on ebay, and amazon but reviews say it's nylon. I'd prefer silk or cotton

there is one seller on ebay that I have purchased from in the past.
I know linking things direct can be frowned upon here but my experience buying has been good and it does not hurt to share.
real silk and hand dyed.
Use this to find the listing:
Silk Tsuka ito 10mm (thickness 1.5mm) katana cord/tsukamaki MADE in JAPAN
