I was surprised how well it turned out. I think the antique leather colour was the right choice too. A flat brown would have lacked the texture to the colour and black woukd have been too severe I think.

I was surprised how such a simple wrap gave such a great result. It harks back to the days of old when hilts would have had a simple leather wrap. The difference with this to more archaic hilts being the width of the wrap. I think the narrow wrap in that colour gives better texture and overall aesthetic.

What's a good place to buy wraps for our hilts? Doesn't have to be made specially for hilts either.
