Hi. I am in Japan for a short stay. Does anyone here know of an outlet that sells the cotton cord or tape used by the Japanese to secure the tops of their wooden boxes? Thanks Mark

Thanks Curran. Would like to find a store where I can see the product if you know of one. Yours is a good back up. Cheers

BTW you can visit Hakoyoshi main store at 1-27-12 Higashi Ueno, Taito-ku in Tokyo.

 

They use Sanada Himo for their cords.

 

Here is the Sanada Himo website:

As Malcolm said.

The links I gave you include a map. Just click on MAP or:

Go to the museum, go get a decent bowl of curry near the train tracks, go to the store and buy whatever you want or need.

Or reverse the order and go to the store first. There are some good cheap eats in the area.

Heading that way. Do they sell bulk tap? I need about 10 metres. Mark
