That is a bummer, Barrett! here is a link that might help.

I also remember a product named Hooflex mentioned in a thread somewhere.
Thanks for the helpful link
I used it on an oak stick from my brother's driveway.
After cutting the stick down again, a nubbin needed reducing to let the cap fit. Then I trimmed off a tiny nubbin that scratched my hand during moulinets, never mind espadrones (sp?)
(Moulinet means Mill-wheel, which means twirling your stick between thumb and forefinger; espadrone means something like sword-stroke, where you tighten your fingers and accelerate into a cut with a draw-stroke.
For calisthenic and historical purposes only, obviously.
Don't try this at home. Always wear safety glasses.
Nice to see your Guardians Lambsfoot at work Jer, and I'm enjoying your learned ruminations
I just want to say I recived my pocket slip yesterday and thanks so much,I think it's awesome. You did great work and the note that accompanied it shows you but heart and soul into these slips. You added another level to this already great experience. It will be a set I cherish and pass on to my boy agian thank you and jack for doing all this. Pictures of the pair soon
Keith.
Great stuff Keith, looking forward to seeing your pics
I enjoyed Dylan's pics recently of his new buffalo and ox horn pair, and thought to take a similar snap of mine.
Excellent pic Chin, it really shows the horn of both knives well, but particularly your Guardian
Think I'm carrying this one again today
