: Here's where you can get it: http://www.jastown.com/bulk/rs-333.htm

: It's used for making Indian re-creations (fake leather)

: Unbelieveably strong, sticky type of wax on it and it's flat like thin
: shoelace. Great for lashing and sewing skin boats.

Hmmm. It sounds conceptually similar to the Gudebrod polyester lacing tape I used (also available in nylon). I'll have to get some.
