11) Now grab the rectangle marquee tool

and select the area where we want the handle to be.


12) Hit "Delete" on your keyboard to delete that part of the blade


13) Now we create the top part of the handle, so create a new layer and call it "Guard"

and the once again grab the rectangle marquee

and draw a rectangle at the end of the blade on the new layer. Then grab the paint bucket tool

and fill in the area that you have selected by clicking inside the rectangle (it doesn't matter what color you fill it in with).


14) Now we draw the handle. So create another new layer and name it "Handle"

and then once again grab the rectangle marquee

and draw a rectangle that will be the handle in the new layer. Then grab the paint bucket tool

and fill in the area that you have selected with the color "B9B9B9" by clicking inside the rectangle.




15) Now we must add the end to the handle so for the last time create another new layer and call it "End"

and then again grab the rectangle marquee

and draw a rectangle that is the same height as the handle at the end of it. Then grab the paint bucket tool

and fill in the area that you have selected by clicking inside the rectangle (it doesn't matter what color you fill it in with).


16) The hard work is done, now we have to add the layer effects to make our shapes look like the actual parts of the sword. So select the blade layer from the "Layer Panel" and goto the top menu

and choose "Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options..."

Now apply these effects:


Then choose "Color Overlay" and use the color "B2B2B2" and then select "OK"
Our blade should now look like a steel blade

17) Now select the "Guard" layer from the "Layer Panel" and goto the top menu

and choose "Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options..."

Now apply these effects:



and then select "OK"
We should have a guard that looks like this:

18) The handle requires 3 layers of effects. So we must duplicate the "Handle" layer twice giving the names "Grip" and "Tape" to make it easy to refer to. To do this you must select the "Handle" layer from the "Layer Panel" and goto the top menu

and choose "Layer > Duplicate Layer..."
Then set the "Fill:" to "0%" on the "Grip" and "Tape" layers only. Make sure the the layers are in the same order that I have in the picture:

So now we have 6 total layers.

19) Select the "Handle" layer from the "Layer Panel" and goto the top menu

and choose "Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options..."

Now apply these effects:


The pattern is from the pattern group called "Patterns" and it is in the 2nd row 3rd one in.
Now select "OK"
The handle will look like this:

20) Now for the "Grip" layer we have to make a new gradient. To do this select the "Grip" layer from the "Layer Panel" and goto the top menu

and choose "Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options..."

Now choose "Gradient Overlay"

Click on the gradient itself

Now add a black color at location 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% by clicking on below the gradient a box will appear

Then add a white color at location 10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, 90% and select OK

The settings for the gradient should be:

And now the handle should look something like:

21) Select the "Tape" layer from the "Layer Panel" and goto the top menu

and choose "Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options..."

Now apply these effects using the same gradient that we created with the last step:

The handle of the sword should now look like:

22) Now lastly we want to add layer effects to the end of our sword. To do this select the "End" layer from the "Layer Panel" and goto the top menu

and choose "Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options..."

Apply these steps to that layer:

You should now have a finished product
