Attachments for the metal plate between the blade and handle?

You can't see it in this angle, but if you were to look under the curved plate at the end of the grip, you'd likely be able to see the mushroomed ends of the pins. |
Nice, thank you very much Sir. By the way, do you know how did they take measures so that pins are aligned?

Simply drill through both the plate and the wood. The rivet holes would probably have been punched in the metal plate before putting it on the grip, so they would have just held it on there and then used a 'birdcage' awl or similar tool to bore the hole for the rivet pins.

I see. That makes sense and is a good idea punch the pins in the plate before. Thank you a lot!
