Are you looking for threaded connectors that you would then screw machine screws into each end? If so, look on the knife makers' web sites for pivot bolts. Almost every major shop has them in a variety of diameters and lengths. This is what I use for attaching scales to fixed blades.
There are several other types of connectors out there for handles, including Corby bolts, Loveless bolts, chain ring bolts, sexbolts, shoulder bolts, Chicago screws, etc.

Are you looking for what is called a JP bolt ( sleeve and 2 screws? if so contact JEPHCO jephco@centurylink.net I just bought some and they work great much cheaper than the hardware store or Mcmaster Carr. If you are looking for a thong tube type bolt there isn't really anything like that except for chain bolts. The guys at jephco made me some custom corby's that had the hole all the way through, kind of spendy but I only wanted a few He says he is planning to make them a stock item one he gets a few bugs worked out .
