i think that the "Running Dog" knife company (or the guy who owns the company) has a neat little tutorial on a couple of wraps...a basic one where you can't see where the ends are at; and one just like the kind used on the Japanese designs, beautiful...if you use two colors and do the basic one first and then the Asian looking one on top, it is very professional looking and top notch...i'll see if i can find the link for it...meantime you might want to call Running Dog or e-mail him; i'm sure he'll help you out with where he posted it...very friendly guy. check out his website (if i can find it later, i work nights so it may take a while) if you can find it; i'm not sure if he's under the links page here- may have to check custom makers on the link page as well as commercial cause i'm not sure exactly what he would be classified as. hope that helps...
