So i decided to put a leather grip on my very first saber. I was trying to give it more of an old republic feel. I didnt go with a wrap or a lace up style. Instead i created a sleeve. I need to order some of the trim rings to help keep it in place and give it a cleaner edge, but it isnt bad looking without. Let me know what you think.

It looks light brown in the first pick due to the flash, but it is almost black looking in regular light. Got the leather off a ln old leather sofa someone threw out.
