I am new to this method and knifemaking. I have a 440C blade that I am attaching 304 SS bolsters and buttplate to. I am unable to pin them so I was recommended to solder them.
I have read many forums and youtube videos on soldering but none to show how to actually tin correctly...cool ... Then reheat and attach to the blade. My last
resort is just using epoxy but I really don't want to have any internal lines showing from the bolster.
Any help or links would be VERY appreciated !!!
 
You need to ask your question within the Knifemakers section of Bladeforums where they do that sort of thing for a living. I am sure you will get plenty of good advice in there.
