Check this site out if you need a high temperature cement.

That's probably a really pricy hi-tech goo.

I think I'd try a highly flexible, waterproof adhesive instead.
Either Plumber's Goop or E6000, which are very nearly identical.

Dry the handle, use a toothpick to work some adhesive into the recess,
then push the cleaned stainless part in. Dry overnight, then pare off
the squeezeout. That should fix them for your lifetime, at least.

If they don't have notches (handle and knife shank), make a few for
better retention.
