Nice work!
But i fear that it will pop out when you use it.
I did some inlays on an axe a few years ago and it kept popping out untill i put thin nails in angle before i glued it in place
I made nails of the same material as the inlay ,Nicklesilver in my case,but those thin nails for wallhooks should work if you have the same problem.

 Finally completed... K.Halverson Railroad Spike head, hickory handle, brass cross, woodburned owl and deer track...Scalloped handle feels good in the hand...This was a fun project, hope you like it.

Very nice Don - the Cross came out real well. Still not sure about having an Owl on there tho . Bob

 Thanks Bob, As you can see I love and respect the Owl...My favorite thing to hear in the woods especially when they start cackling amongst themselves. I've seen the Barred Owl take many squirrels while waiting for deer. They have the patience of Job and you never hear them fly. One of the greatest hunters there is.

Very nice Don, love it. Now get that thing dirty with some use, it'll only get better looking with age. :)
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

  Thankyou 4dog, I tried hard.
  dbb, I will keep your idea in mind, I have peened brass on some knives so I could pull it off if it loosens.
  Went tam, glad you like it.  8)
   Parnel, thanks for the compliment buddy.
   Rich, coming from you means a lot, thank you sir. Your post on the presentation hawk got my blood boiling.
   Greg, that's the plan. I'll carry it this hunting season Lord willing.
