Delef: I would at least replace the wrapping where it is missing. Near my home we have a large hobby store (Michaels) that has just about anything a person would need according to his hobby interests. They carry several different types of hemp and jute string, used for stringing beads and whatnot. Some are almost exactly the type of braid used in moro handles. Some are a coarse type braid, some are a fine braid. They also carry 20 gauge and up stainless wire that is silver plated and with a fine twist. It is very easy to wrap handles and one cannot tell it from regular twisted silver wire on a moro handle. It looks just the same, at least to me anyway.........Dave.
