Loose buttcap.

[Stuart S. Igarta]

I have a loose buttcap on one of my khukuris. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

Stu, some good epoxy is the easiest fix. You may need a syringe to squirt it underneath the cap.

Thanks Uncle Bill!

Epoxy is easiest and safest. If you run into problems get in touch and we will go to phase 2.
