    Hi Traps - Yes it can but may as well start again will be cleaner geometry. Does 360 have lofting? That would be the correct way to do this. Peter

    <<<<< It's a knife handle, I made the faces in fusion 360 but that program is very weak and illogical when it comes to sculpting>>>>>>

    I would start over, after viewing some videos to learn how to use Fusion 360.

    The knife handle should be easy to model.

    Re: Can this be modeled is Solidworks?

    I've gone through 3 people on fiverr, none could do it and all had 4.9+ ratings for modelling, one more said "can't be done" and now I've got two more currently trying. No, sculpting is not easy in Fusion. I've looked up sculpting tutorials but they never start from a predefined face, they always start from a blob and shoehorn it into the model and the edges never meet cleanly the way I need it to. I need a face to cleanly transition into a sculpted body, yes it probably can be done but not by any sensible and logical means.

    I noticed you made a prototype using some formable material.
    I was a member of TechShop Detroit before they closed.
    They had a scanner, which would be useful, and then import to your Cad program.
    Might be the method to try.
