    Gorilla 2 part epoxy, weather proof. You only get one shot at it so het it right the first time.
    It's just Sharpening, right?

    I use Loctite Marine Epoxy and have always had great results.

    Marine epoxy is definitely the way to go.

    I use Goop. Comes in a tube. No mixing, no mess. Smear inside of the handle, a big dollop on the plug of the knot. Get it where you want it and hang it upside down.
    Let it hang there for a few days.

    Any waterproof epoxy will do.
