Finish out the front on the handle slabs. Put them in place (with the pins/bolts) to get an exact placement of where they will sit, and coat everything you do not want glue to get on, with Petroleum Jelly. Then remove the handle slabs, apply the epoxy to the tang, and put slabs in place. Once the epoxy is cured, even if any of it has gotten onto the blade area, you can use a sharpened brass rod to "pop" the little globs of dried glue off.
