Hey guys, this is my first post on the forums, and I need advice. My uncle gave me an Aitor Bowie knife for Christmas, and I absolutely love this thing. Except for one small problem... The wooden handle wobbles and moves. I've tried superglueing the wood to the brass guard in the crease area, but it only held up for a while. I tried getting the pommel off to fill the gaps on the inside with glue or epoxy, but I have no idea how to get the pommel off. Can anyone give me help/advice? Pics can be shown if needed.

Much appreciated.
 
pics would help. Are the scales pinned? is it a rat tail tang? what Aitor model is it?
 
btw, supergluing the wood to the brass at the crease is a waste of superglue. Try 2-part epoxy, but pics would be better to try to help. Congrats, Aitors are awesome blades.
 
Sorry, I have no information on the model or anything like that, when I got it it had no sheath or box. Just the knife. Also, I believe it is a hidden tang, but I have heard that Aitor uses a two part tang. I will post pics as soon as I can.
