16 – go to face mode and select both sides faces, this should be single faces from both sides to create that little hand protector, and then use your extrude tool to extrude.
17 – keep extruding and create the round shape in the end, use your scale tool to make it round.
18 – we will use this tool to create edge loop around the middle of the handle.
19 – now if you click on the middle edges it will appear as a red dot with red lines its indicating that the edges are being created, so keep creating until you finish from where you started.
20 – select the vertices of newly created edge and move them up using scale tool.
for some reason, when I use the offset edge loop tool, it doesn’t split the line like it’s displayed in your picture.
