I was just wondering, has anyone ever wrapped their bokken's tsuka?

On a good, hardwood Bokken, there is no reason to wrap the Tsuka with anything.

I do know people who have wrapped the Tsuka of "Bokken" made of laminated rosewood (the laminate is a polymer of sorts) because the Tsuka would get slippery in sweaty hands in the Summer. I have several of these, but have not found in necessary to wrap my Tsuka in spite of heavy sweating in the Summer.
