I do mostly no-plunge knives lately. James is right... it's not too difficult on a full-tang blade with nothing but scales (or scales and bolsters)... but gets a bit trickier when you are fitting up a guard on a hidden tang.

re: hidden tang/no plunge... I have just as much trouble with a normal rectangular guard slot as I do with one that's almost a triangle, so it's not really an issue for me
I got frisky today while thinking about this concept and ground a distally-tapered tang with a no-plunge, axially-tapered, fully-distally-tapered blade... now that gets interesting
