A few years back I got a white belt with aikido written on it that was a copy of Ueshibas caligraphy. I think I got it from aikido today magazine (now defunct). Now that I earned my black belt I sure would like to get another belt with the same caligraphy but I've had not much luck finding one.

If anyone out there can point me in the right diorection I sure would be happy!

Thanks

Have you tried bringing a copy of your white belt to the embroidery place and see if they could replicate the calligraphy on your new obi ?

Yes, but that is plan "B". I figured doing business with a MA specialty vendor was a first option so as to keep the cash flowing within the "family" so to speak.

Have you tried Eosin Panther (http://www.eosinpanther.com) or Kataaro (http://www.kataaro.com/) ?
