1. We process to the finished shape of the handle
2. draw the pattern you want to get
3. knife cut out the pattern in the handle to a depth of approximately 3mm
4. place in which to inlay a thick paper, so that the entire space in which to be covered pewter
5. in the paper hole through which we pour pewter
6. Pewter melted and pour over prepared shaft
7. after removing the paper we process pewter protruding nail file

I do not know if I described it in a comprehensible manner. How will I do I do next hawk pictures
