Thanks for your advice.

I have never used the loveless bolts. I presume something like these would do the job? http://brisa.fi/rivets-bolts-rings/loveless.html

If you don't mind me asking a bit about this approach - the bolts, once secured can I saw the tips off and grind them down so they fit smoothly with the handle? or will I have to live some of the bolt sticking out.

The stub tang is very interesting. I read your description, if you don't mind I would like to ask for some clarification.

You mention a ferrule, I am familiar with the concept and have done that a few times, however in your description (if I read it right, apologies if I misunderstand) you mention only to drill into the block for the handle material but not all the way through - just to make sure, where would you place the ferrule? If it is to fit on the tang but the tang shouldn't go all the way through then I presume in front of the handle material?

Sorry if I am confusing here..

Thanks in advance, and thanks for the help so far.
