What steps need to be made for exchanging the blade?

Unscrew the pommel, remove the handle, remove the cross-guard (basket) and then screw everything together again in reverse order with the new blade. Screw the pommel tight by hand. So that it does not slip in the hand, you can a piece of soft leather or cloth. The exchange is very easy. Everything will be clear when you see the blade with your own eyes.
