Nice! British Blades would be the best option for advice on assembling a stick tang knife. Won't even have to ask for help, just some simple searching will show dozens of threads.

Ibrown make shore you have got a long enuff drill bit to go into the birch,are you going to put the stick tang all the way throw the wood or cut a bit off? When you put the brass bolster on first ild use black epoxy let it go off and clean off exsess ,then start building up the rest of the handle.Dont shape it untill it is stuck to the knife.I'm on skype if you want a face2face chat...........atb...........TONY
