Ed does the 5 year hold time apply to the long set up epoxies as well? I have always used them and always used pins and screws too. I just sold a knife last year I made in the 90's and it was the overnight epoxy and it wasn't coming apart. I haven't had a knife come back because the epoxy came loose. I also use JB Weld and it glues to metal really well, I use it mostly for hidden tangs. I have also and still use some Cyanoacrylates CA glues if I need a quick bond, it's a Loc-Tite product too. This is the first time I have heard about the glue coming apart in 5 years.
