Hi Miguel 
No problem at all to give my procedure,  
Unfortunately I am unable to find pictures of the process I took a long time ago 
I did put the information on sword forum international  
If I am ok to put hyperlinks to other forums I would appreciate it if you can confirm this or not 
On the refurb quandary, I feel a lot of quiet heavy cleaning is carried out by some members on this forum, something I do only as a last resort  
But to each their own I suppose, the thing is once you start then you have to finish and if the job goes bad you have a bitter pill to swallow. 
I have only replaced when there was nothing there of the original handle. 
Now on my sword that there is history of previous bad repair I am more stuck on what to do, 
If this repair was carried out 100 years ago should I be the one to un do this work?. 
Hard to know 
Regards 
Ken
