I'll be doing something close in a couple weeks.It will be stag in the center with brass pommel and guard and brass,leather and black glass spacers.The pommel will be threaded on the tang though.

I have done multiple piece handles before.They aren't too hard but require a lot of fitting and a way to keep everything pressed together tight while the epoxy dries.
