Rewrapping of the Sword

Took down my Ninja Sword from the top of the book shelf on Saturday. It's time for it to swing out of aesthetic retirement for a while. Still a little bit undecided if I should do this. Awww. what the heck...Sword kata performance at JZ wedding it will be!

But first it looks like a little maintenance is in need:


The badminton racket handle tapes that previously sticked on to replace the original cloth ones seems to be corroding away. Makes a mess of the floor just by touching it.

After short trip to the nearby Queensway shopping centre for supplies:

And this was the results! So far badminton grips are the most suitable... spongy, grippy, not to mention nice colour and designs can be found too.
My current one is not done very well but I only need it to last till the end of the performance, after that, I shall find a better replacement and actually spend some time to perfectly wrap the handle.
