Italian term or phrase: aggancio meccanico
This is from an article on a restored knife found among the funerary accoutrements of a tomb.

Il il sistema adottato per unire la lama con il manico è quella del “getto ad incastro”, noto anche col termine tedesco “Ueberfangguss” .
Si tratta di un tipo di ***aggancio meccanico*** basato su una colata (getto) di bronzo fuso su parti lavorate meccanicamente a freddo.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA

Explanation:
Ti ho fornito tre idee che ritengo valide. Fastening è un fissaggio, invece coupling vuol dire accoppiamento (possibile aggancio), connection vuol dire collegamento (in qualsiasi modo) e hooking è l'aggancio fisico con un dispositivo ad uncino.

fastening


Explanation:
I am not sure that "mechanical" would add anything. The casting process is specified later in the text.
