Hey, Ben (if I may)........I don't know what type of sword you have, but I've used chamois cloth (real chamois leather, not a 'Shamm-Wow' like on tv... don't know what that stuff is.) as a re-grip. You can get it anywhere, and some are thicker than others. It's a bit suede-like, so if you want 'shiny' leather, you'll have to wax-polish-seal it...after you dye it. I've found it to work quite well. A fellow forumite here even turned me onto the idea of soaking pet store dog chew-bones for a source of rawhide! Good luck.....Pict.
