Has anyone ever used Gorilla Epoxy (link below) for knife handle attachment
Does it work well for attachment of knife scales.

Gorilla glue works well, though I have not used their epoxy.
The only problem with Gorilla glue is it does work well with stick tangs where it had to fill gaps and remain strong as it foams up and is not solid. That is why I use epoxy for that.

I would imagine the Gorilla epoxy would be fine. The regular gorilla glue is awesome for slab handles!
I tried to get some wood handles off a knife for some reason and I had a hard time removing them. One handle split down the grain of the wood. I had to sand the wood from the tang!

If the epoxy works as good it should be fine as long as your prep is good.
