Curious
So Bill, you started to unwrap the hilt and found the munsala underneath the sisal/jute wrap ?
Can you describe it; is there a prayer or incantation written on the cloth ? |

Rick, It is just as I bought it. I am going by what the seller told me. I don't really want to unwrap it and I am not in recent close contact with the seller. However I am also curious. I will email him and see what he can tell us. I do want to re-stain the blade. |

From comparing the two pictures it looks like someone unwrapped the handle before you received it .
