Most handles are held in place with either pins and epoxy or screws (and epoxy). There are some specialty screws that are used, I like the loveless style but others like the corby fasteners or Chicago screws.
just get some brazing rod. Cut to length and peen over with a hammer. If you want that nice round look, make a spinner and use your drill press.
If you want smooth rivets then pin and epoxy and then sand the high spots.
Oh, so they're not rivet's at all, they're pins. Hmm. Where does one get these pins? Or are they like klickitat said, just brazing rod?
Basically. You can buy them in different thicknesses depending on what you want. I get most of the brass rods at the home depot. I order my copper and S.S ones from an online metal dealer. These guys: http://www.onlinemetals.com/Quote:

I have used everything from copper electrical wire to coathangers and nails. Whatever is in the waste can at the time and fits the drill hole.

Yes, there is a thing called a cutler's rivet. It is commonly used and a good thing for a knifemaker to know about and have in the supply box. Most of the suppliers carry several kinds.
Some of us just use trash out of the scrap bin. I have used everything from copper electric wire, coathangers and brass screws, counting on the epoxey to do most of the work.
I usually use corby bolts on my knives. I get them cheap at Pops knife supply. He has the best prices so far in corbies.
Thats good to know. I've used USA knifemakers ever sense my falling out with texas knifemakers. I'll do more shopping around.Quote:

We've had a lot of people steeling the ground wires off our poles up here...they cut it about 8 or 10 feet above ground and take all they can reach...been to Maine lately Crash?:innocent: Careful, you can get hurt bad if you become the path to ground!:)Quote:

Just checked out Jantz supply, and I like those cutlery rivet's. That's exactly what I thought everybody used.
The ones I've seen (never used) are very limited or nearly exact in the thickness that they allow for your handle. Using a set of pins or the corby bolts, etc gives you some room to contour the handle so that it fits your hand. If you take off to much material in the handle, the rivets wont tighten down and if you leave it to thick, they wont lock together.Quote:

No that makes sense. I definately like the corby bolts better. The way I understand corbies, is they have flat heads on them, that's way longer than you would need to be counter sunk, and you grind off the flat grove?Quote:
