No problem! I tinned the rear with solder, and you should be able to flux and apply it with a hot soldering iron. You can discolor the horn if you aren't VERY quick and careful. Immediately spray with water, then flush the knife with WD 40 to displace moisture in the knife.
Or, you could super glue it on.
