Nice looking resto!! The horn looks great and feels better with if back to size. All to my users hand & rip saws are #12s except for a Bishop #12 clone. You'll love it at any price.

It looks great! I recently made a similar repair.
While CA Glue excels that filling cracks and sealing small gaps, it is "brittle" when it dries. If the repaired joint is subjected to a shock, the repair may well fail. Because it is flexible, Epoxy is my glue of choice. I can color it so that the repair will blend in with wood and hardly be noticeable

I ran a thread on saw handle repair too. I have three or four I am repairing and I am making a couple or so as well. At the end of the thread Bob Smalser mentions West Systems as an excellent source for glue and filler for these kinds of repairs. Good stuff I have used it extensively for boat repair.
