Hello

i am new to this. My question is this. I have stacked walnut and brass with the last piece of brass towards the point of the blade. I want to silver solder the gap around the blade. I have used expoxy for the stacking and not sure if I will melt the expoxy while trying to solder the gap. Any help is greatly appreciated. 

Thank you

Generally the epoxy will soften and possibly burn, silver solder is actually a low temp brazing process, hotter than solder but cooler than copper or brass. (One can cooler braze, then brass braze and finally silver solder in multi step assemblies)
