I’m putting an engraved brass name plate into the stag handle of a knife for a friend of mine—already inletted, good fit, etc. Was planning on predrilling slightly undersized holes and driving little brass nails in (in addition to epoxy) but got to thinking—would little screws be better? I know brass screws wouldn’t be near hard enough to cut into the stag, but thought about tapping the stag for like 4-40 or something, and doing little brass machine screws, grinding the little tapered heads flat to the plate after it’s all in. Does stag take threads worth anything, or will this just become an exercise in removing a broken tap?
Thanks in advance
