newbie question

"Hello every one"

I hope this is not a dumb question.I want to know if its ok to have brass liners on a fixed blade that I'm making. I have an idea about the way that I want the handle to look.And if its ok do I just epoxy or solder.
Thank you.

It's been done, and if it's the look you're going for, do it. You won't need solder, just epoxy and pin the handles together.

Sure, you can do that.

Just get some 60 grit sandpaper and sand the sides of the liner to scratch it up real well so the epoxy will have something to grab onto. Don't squeeze all the epoxy out.
