I know pewter has a low melting point and is used to make nose caps and decorations on knife handles....how is this done? I was told that cardboard could be taped on and the melted pewter poured in the cavity then file down what isn't wanted. Correct??? How do you keep the pewter from sticking to knife blades and having to be removed with a file? Will this also work on putting decoration on horns without burning it? thanks for your help
