I think I know what Dennis means when he talks about the difficulty of throwing
wraps with adequately covering baskethilts.

My basket covers basically a little more than a half-globe around my hand, righ
now, and doesn't interfere with wraps thrown at my opponents' heads. Yesterday,
however, I was trying to learn a "rising wrap" and the entire lower half of my
hand is a big, painful, self-inflicted bruise, thanks to my baskethilt.  The 
bars kept rolling along my hand whenever I got to the point in a wrap where 
my hand kind of turns over.  I borrowed a weapon which doesn't cover as much of
the hand (maybe this is a 1/3 globe) and had no problem with the shot.

P. S. Does anyone know a way around this problem? I padding the inside of the
baskethilt doesn't work well, and padding the outside is awkward...
