It is easy to apply to blank wood! Because;

 -the wood is already shaped along a tang
 -it is fasten with hidden pins so as not to move out of position.

Thus you don’t feel any difficulties to attach it by yourself.
*Each blade is made by hand forging,  so a shape of each tang is slightly different.

 Please adjust its shape perfectly fitting for your tang, as a hole of a wood blank and brass bolster is cut a bit smaller than a tang.
