Hi @Anonymous,
On your two questions:
1. How do I incorporate new holes in that profile (i.e. I drew circles for holes, but the profile isn't picking up the new ... profile)?
It looks like what happened here is that you added the new circles to a different sketch - you need to edit the sketch of whatever geometry that you want to add the holes to. Here's a screencast:
2. Once that is all done is it possible, in sketch mode, to line up the pivot hole in handle w/ the blade hole and rotate it to see interference. I used to do all this in Inkscape, so I'm struggling a bit learning a new program. Thank you so much for the help already.
You can sometimes do what you want in sketch mode, but it's usually painful. The better way to do this is to create components for your parts. A component can have just sketch data in it, or it can also have solid material.
Here is another screencast showing how to do this with your design, containing only sketch data. But, you should really step back a bit and learn some about how to use Fusion, especially R.U.L.E #1 when dealing with assemblies of components, and it would be easier to do with realistic solid geometry than with sketches.
