Hey guys, been a while since i posted. Anyway heres the problem, looks like someone was messing with my swords while i was out and of course they messed up my prized possession. Some how the end knot on the tsuka of my ryumon painted dragon is now undone. I went to a few sites that have diagrams but they dont make sense. The ito is still wrapped but im afraid it will get loose and come off. Does any one know a simple way to re tie this knot ?

Can you post a picture of what came undone? The ito is just tucked in and pasted with rice glue or the easier to aquire elmers(I prefer fabric glue) Depends on which ito run came out on where it goes. You can go to the TS Buck Tsuka site to get a better idea. No tying just tucking and can be easy to fix depending how much came undone.

Not too much, i wound up just tucking it under and than tying it in two knots. Not as nice looking as before but to the untrained eye it no biggie. Thanks for the reply.
