Why not make the vid anyway? :my2cents:
The ferrule (bracelet) would be the top part of the handle, typically constructed of horn. It should be quite simple if the tang slot (hole) is predrilled for you, if not, it adds a couple of extra steps and makes it a bit more difficult, though not impossible.
Home Depot has some cheap and very handy microrasps, made by Sheffield, I believe. If you need to make the tang hole wider on handle/ferrule, they work really well.
PS. Go Leafs!
Camera shy and unmotivated.

That helps a lot, I haven't got the handle yet should be the next couple of days. It's a
Tojiro D Shaped Handle that i'm putting on my first attempt at knife making. Is the ferrule part of the handle
or is it 2 pieces(handle/ferrule)
Thanks again
I know that this isn't what you're looking for but I thought that you'd enjoy seeing this anyway. Here's how your handle is made or very close to how it's made.
