Seems to me a lot of that detail could be handled with a good texture.... otherwise, making those "fishscale" contours is going to involve perhaps extruding some shapes and patterns just slightly out of the basic handle shapes.

Same with those indents along the side. Either cut the grooves and extrude sections inward a row at a time... or consider doing it with shades on the texture.
