I've done several burn in installations on nice knives, never had an issue. this image suggests a lack of common sense perhaps. IMO burn in is FAR SUPERIOR to epoxy mounting.

For Ho wood handles, that is absolutely a great way, but for resin-stabilized burl like this, there would have been no way to burn into it.
Unless it had an untreated core dowel.
Yes of course! sorry I forgot about that possibility
How much of the edge got cooked? Temper-affecting heat won't carry far along the edge. If it needed to be done, it would not be impossible to shorten the knife, though the resulting profile could be a personal thing.
doh! I often hesitate on selling custom handles to customers for this very reason!
