My buddy had one of these handed down. I'm noodling how to do these guards thinking they wouldnt have wanted waste in 1860. Can someone clue me in on how these guards were done? Thx. New to this, hope the pic post works right. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1qiZSJF_HqNZb6A-MrWR8onpKnDCLRzLu

Don't host pics in drive, we can't see them.
Use postimage.org or so

If you wish to use postimage, then use the "Hotlink for forums:" link so the photo will appear direct in your post. I can see you thumbnail, but when I click on it the photo doesn't show up for some reason. You might like to try https://imgbb.com/ for hosting images. That's the one I use and here's what you see in a thread:

I think these were most likely sand-cast and filed flush to the tang by hand. The amount of waste wouldn't be huge. You can buy very similar ones cheap today through Crazy Crow.
