Hi guys,
I bought 2 hand stitched rasps from LV a while back. I'd like to replace the black plastic handles with wooden ones, purely for "looks". I was thinking of heating the handles with a hand held hair dryer, and then pulling them off. (Reluctant to get them too hot because of the temper in the steel, so putting them in the oven on 200* seemed like a bad idea.)

Do you have any ideas on better ways to do this?

Thank you!
Fred
