Thread: Removing Knot from a Ceramic Handle

A few months back, I picked up a ceramic handle with black badger knot. I'm really pleased with the handle; but the badger knot appears to have clipped ends, which bothers me. So I am thinking to swap it out with a similar-sized black synthetic knot.

I used a two-part epoxy adhesive to install the knot. To loosen this, I'm thinking to add acetone, but I'm not really sure if this will work, or if it risks damaging the handle. Any alternative advice or confirmation that acetone should work would be appreciated.
