i read thru the threads here that came up from a search on 'kayapo', quite informative. saw many similar with some of the features of 'my' one, but not all. looks like many with the fibre braiding on the grip also had a seizing wrap on the ends of the fibre to hold iy in place and protect the ends of the braiding.
