: I recall a recent issue of UY where Usagi made a point of showing that he had tied his sword into its scabbard. Is there a traditional way, or do you just wind a cord around the sword hilt and the top of the scabbard until they are securely tied together?
I think that should do it. An alternate way is to tie it around the top of the scabbard and through a hole in the "tsuba", the sword-guard, is there is a hole.
