Warthog tusk handle

Hello. New to this forum.

I have made a couple of knives out of deer antlers. Now I want to use warthog tusks and possibly a hippopotamus tusk for the same thing. I have seen pictures of such knives but no information as to specifically how they were made.

Does one simply cut some of the tang off, full the tusk with epoxy, and place the knife in there? Or is there some more sophisticated way of securing the knife and the tang ?
