I have a old Finnish knife (WW II era) with a loose brass cup bolster. Trying to avoid disassembly, I would like to inject something under the bolster to eliminate the slop by filling in the gap between the handle and the bolster walls.

Shoe Goo would work great - but it's far too thick for any syringe I have or can imagine.

Super Glue seems too thin to fill the space (up to 1/16")

Suggestion(s)?
 
epoxy

loctite and other brands sell it in two part syringes that mix the resin with the hardener as you squeezed.
 
A gel super glue (CA glue) might work also, in filling a somewhat larger void. In part, it's what such a glue was made for. It also is less runny than the standard super glues. An example linked below:
