OK. How do you make the pins that are in the handles of knifes that I see on the forum. ie. the nice round ones with circles / squares inside them.

I have found that if you go to a model shop you can pick up tubes and things and with a little matching and some glue you can arrange some wonderful patterns if you look on YouTube there are some decent videos on how to make it's quite easy but time consuming a a little fiddly. Good luck

They are known as mosaic pins, and yes, they can be either made relatively easily, or bought (although expensive at times).
