I'm going to be buying silk ito in the near future. The ito would be for use on katana and therefore be 10mm wide.
I plan on buying it in bulk due to the fact I have a number of tsukas to wrap and would also like to keep some on hand.
If anyone is interested I might be able to sell some of the extra off at a lower cost than I've seen on the Internet.
I roughly figured $2.00 per foot plus shipping (In US about $4.00 plus the mailer envelope). These figures are just estimates at this time. If anyone knows where real silk ito can be found for less let me know and I will look into it.
Also I would ship elsewhere, but the cost would vary according to location. No matter where I shipped I would only charge the actual cost to ship.
The reason I am putting this info up prior to buying the ito is if your interested let me know the color. I will be buying black for myself and any other color that there is enough interest in.
I'm not going to hold anyone to actually buying the ito if you expressed an interest, but am just trying to get an idea what the interest is.
Basically I am trying to save myself some money (buying by the foot is a lot more expensive than bulk) and doing it this way would help me and anyone else who bought the extra stock I would have.
Just throwing this idea out here.
Let me know what you think of it.
Thanks Sol

Also as far as shipping goes (in the US) if the average amount of ito needed to wrap a tsuka would fit into a regular envelope (maybe wrap it around an index card and stick it in the envelope) I might do that.
In this case I figure shipping might be less than a dollar.
