    Use an epoxy. JB Weld is a good choice since you can clean up the squeeze out (lapping or sanding it) after it's cured and it's waterproof.

    I had a similar hone. I heated the halves up in the over (~200 F) and used a hot glue gun. If you don't heat the hones the glue will harden before it bonds.
    That was about 6 months ago and all is fine.

    As ChrisL stated, epoxy or JB Weld should work also but I don't have experience with them on Belgian hones.

    That's a beauty!

    I like JoeD's idea in the event one would ever want to separate the halves again (using a heat sensitive glue) as the epoxy route is essentially permanent.

    Any excess hot glue that comes out the side I just trim off with a single edge razor blade.
