Hello everyone. I made a post a couple years ago about a knife i picked up while in Japan on a trip. After giving it a new edge it has been cutting perfectly no issue for about a year.
I noticed a while ago that the blade has a tiny bit of play with the handle (both side to side and up and down)
I can even pull the tang out of the handle pretty easily a good bit although I dont want to go any further than whats in the picture. The adhesive almost has a rubbery texture similar to E6000 when cured.
I didn't know if there was a way to prevent this movement? Or if I had to compelling remove the tang and fill the handle with epoxy and reset it etc. Wanted to pick yalls brains.
I appreciate any advice!
