Yep, the threading is stripped. In the second video, you were probably able to screw it on just pass the stripping, with the grip and nut removed. Have you tried it without the nut?

I'm thinking the best thing is probably to JBweld it together permanently, and just get it as tight as you can before it hardens.

I guess. I was thinking, like I said in the vid I can remove that open space. So once I do that I do know a guy that could weld that pommel permantly. But how will I get the grip on? I'll might use epoxy but the welding would be better. Would just have to split pommel. It's wood with leather and there is threading so it shouldn't be too hard. Now I have options to make this sword usable.
Thanks for the help all.

Ah! Okay that's an interesting pommel/nut style. I would nip down the stripped thread off the end of the tang, shorten the grip a bit, and go with that. I thought the nut would go on top of the pommel, like this:

I knew that's what you were talking about. I should have clarified more on that
