Very nice work. I have been wondering about the glue issue. With the hidden pins, you have to do it all at once, so that would make for some glue juggling, no

The idea of epoxy leaching out is anathema to me. I can't stand that idea! On these knives, the channel is opened up inside to allow plenty room for lots of epoxy. The front of the handle where the tang enters the wood needs to be flush with the tang on all sides, of course, but inside the handle about maybe 1/8" in from the front of the handle, the channel was opened up. And you aren't kidding. Juggling the hidden pins while setting it up was fun.
