Could someone show the best way to sew a Chaylor-Fenneli

mens wallet interior to a carved, or tooled wallet back.

Sewing is sewing... not sure there is a "best" way. Just be sure to take that stupid cardboard stiffener out of the thing. Those do a nice job of keeping it flat in shipping. Then you get rid of it.

I KNOW SEWING IS SEWING.

I MEANT, DO YOU FOLD THE EDGES OF THE BACK OVER THE LINING,

OR JUST SEW IT & FINISH OFF THE EDGES ?

I GUESS IT'S A MATTER OF PREFERENCE.

Skive double the distance of the folded piece (flesh side of the outer piece). 5mm overlap? then skive 10mm till its thin (.2mm thick), remembering to work the corners.

From there you fold over the overlap onto the lining leaving the corners last. Pleat the edge or the easier way is to finish it the way bookbinders do by cutting and folding. There are a few ways to do a corner another way is to miter the edges.

An alternative is to do bound edges.
