<< < (2/2)

WarBird:
Yeah, I used a 2 part epoxy, the pic below shows what it looked like before so I couldn't really do pins.

Pappy:

Looks pretty good.  You could still go back and pin it with 1/8" brazing rod (that's what I use), even though it wouldn't hold the blade due to the large hadle hole, it might help keep the scales on.  Carful drilling through the bottom scale, watch that you don't punch a big sliver out when you come through it.  Put another piece of wood under it.  Again, looks good, dpg

WarBird:
Thanks guys, I might try and put a pin in if for no other reason than learning how it's done.
