Hi all!
I'm just getting my feet wet with knife making and have a couple blanks ordered from Jantz. I have some wood picked out for scales and know what I'm going to use for the pins, but I am wondering if solder alone would be enough to hold the bolster to the knife blank or is a pin or two NEEDED to keep the bolster secured to the blank through the life of the knife? The reason I ask is that I don't have much experience drilling into steel (I work mostly with wood) and whenever I try, I always break bits. Therefore, if solder alone would suffice, that is what I'll do.
Speaking of solder, would plumbing solder or electronics type solder work for this?
Thanks a lot!
Kyle
