Kamcha-Sabi

Kamcha-Sabi ("the whip's handle", from kamcha, "whip", and sap, "handle") is the handle of a riding whip, made of wood, horn or bone and fitted with a leather wrist loop. Ceremonial handles are inlaid or embossed with silver, a specialty of the leatherworkers of the Old Talas Citadel Quarter (see Kamcha (Horsewhip)).
