Usually sabers come with the handles
wrapped and so do some swords. Shields, spears, staffs and
some swords have bare wood. For those who prefer the feel of a
wrapped handle it is possible to use wraps originally designed
for tennis racquets and golf clubs. The objectives are a
secure grip, some protection from vibration and managing
pespiration so the wrap does not trap moisture and minerals
(salts) on the handle. Kung Fu Direct sells wraps for $1.50.
We are not sure why no black, white or gray. |
