I need to restore the sarute for one of my swords.  It requires brown Kumihimo 4mm for the sarute that was on my Shin Gunto. 

Is anyone interested in a bulk buy - or - does anyone have a some I can buy? 

 

I have located a source from Japan.  They indicated that they can supply 4mm diameter in color BG3 which is pretty close.

Here is a pic of the remnants of the original sarute.
