How to put straight sword tassel on. 如何绑好剑穗 

I have wondered about the proper way(s) to do this for almost 50 years. Your video is interesting and helpful. I am interested in what other pearls of knowledge you are sharing, so I have subscribed. Many thanks.

Thank you i really never knew how to shorten them up and balance it out 👍

If i wasn't clear , i admire you very much. I have learned i have skills even my shifu doesn't know.

Thank u

Thanks a lot for this video. Connecting the two parts of the tassel helps a lot. Could you please make a video about how to attach a sash to a broadsword?

Please understand i do not criticise 🙏. I research the weapons history and design. 1) I believe the tassel should be kept long and use to distract your opponent (face slap) or to capture a weapon or your opponent arm. It is correct to shorten them as a beginner but i have learned to use the tassels at the full length. Maybe i will add weight next to the ends of the tassels to make more powerful. 2) if you use plumbers tape to secure the end , the nut / fixing will be more secure (you can also place simple plastic bag over the bolt , screw the nut over this then tare away any extra you can see). 3) push the tassel through the metal loop on the end and twist around the end of the sword as you do ( pommel), if the tassel comes loose make a small loop to hold the sides together with tape or for pretty a little leather loop and a tiny amout if super glue . 4) if covering the handle, take the sword apart then cover handle with overlapping layers (not cut triangle, only overlap),(secure with little plastic tape) then push inside the top and bottom parts of the sword. This way you do see plastic tape on your pretty sword. I will try to make a video of my methods. I am a craftsman, jewellery maker, amateur sword maker .47yrs ☯️ training . Amitofou ☯️ 🙏

Thank you for sharing. May I ask what is the black tape for? And what kind of white tape I should buy? Thank you❤
