Description
Handle Wrapping Technique: Level 1 (Electrical Tape)This is the first level of difficulty and skill when it comes to doing handle wrapping for your swords. It is the easiest method of handle wrapping to do, however the disadvatage is it looks the most unrealistic.
Higher skilled handle wrapping techniques will be soon made.

I'll be sure to use them, since I've now got access to the shop room at my school. I just hope they don't make me take the easy routes.
I think people should work hard for the sword they make, you appreciate it much more that way. But maybe I'm weird? XP

there are 2 more levels up... one type which is single twist, it leaves a very large diamond shape exposed...
very distinctive diamond shape, but kind of unrealistic cos the side of the diamond cuts into the side
of the tsuka
single twist can only be achieved by removing adhesive from the tape, or using ribbon,
the other type, which is hardest is double twist, controlling the diamond shape is extremely hard
due to the variables in individual twists
