    How does this look guys? Please give me your advice. The inlays are just setting on there at the moment. I also used basswood from michaels, does that matter or should I use a heavier wood

    Is one of the scaled flipped over for the picture? It looks like you made two front side scales.

    Good start.

    I wouldn't have used basswood since it is not very strong and is quite light, but you can probably get away with it. It certainly is easier to shape than harder stuff.

    Keep on truckin'

    I'm still confused, wouldn't one of the inlays be inside where the blade sits if these were pinned now??
