Takoashi Sageo

[Hector]

Hi,

 

If this belongs in the Tosogu section then please move it!

 

I wondered if anyone could advise me how to tie a tacoashi (octopus leg) sageo on a tanto? I've tried all the conventional knots but, because of the 'pyramid' weave, it just doesn't lay correctly.

 

Many thanks,

 

Hector C.

Scratch this. Found a couple of variations which work fine.
