This came out really good you should check out the dowel method might make it easier to get a closer fit up on the tang Basically you drill and file a slot into your quot ferrule quot then you drill a hole in the remainder of the handle material to fit a dowel You cut the dowel 3 4 down the middle to fit the tang of your blade and when you put it all together you get a nice slotted face and you cut
