It has been bound off with both nimwaerere (cordage of human hair and coconut sennit fibres) and irauea (cordage of human hair). Bands at the bottom and top of the section of ira show where the two cordages have been woven into the ira, creating a checkered pattern. A length of fringing has been left loose from the top of the encasement. Four pairs of the noko extend from the encasment, both in different lengths. Two pairs extend right to the end of the reeree and the other two extend half way along the reeree. Each pair has been with a series of wii ni bakoa (sharks teeth). The two short pairs have been continuously lashed with wii ni bakoa where as the longer pairs have been divided into three sections of wii ni bakoa. The claw bone of the waro (sea mantis; stormapod) divide each of the sections of wii ni bakoa. They are short in length with a series of curved barbs that become longer towards one end. Both wii ni bakoa and the claws feature perforations where the kora (cordage of coconut sennit fibres) have been inserted and used for the purpose of securing all the attachments to the reeree. A piece of ira has been used to finish the pointed end of the ree. It has been bound and woven in similar fashion to the intersect of the handle and blade with the nimwaerere. A coil of kora (coconut sennit fibres) features at the mid section of the barbed blade.
