I'm going to be working with some cocobolo and was wondering what you guys use to glue together wa handles (with spacers or horn) as well as 2 piece sayas? I heard it can be tricky with such an oily wood. Do you sand, acetone, epoxy and clamp lightly? That's what I was thinking. Also, what type of epoxy do you find gets good results for both applications? Heard to not even bother with regular wood glue but id' be open to trying it if people recommend it.
ps. will be wearing a respirator etc. I heard some horror stories with cocobolo dust but also that it varies from person to person.
