Looks good. Is that leather as it looks like brown kydex? Like the way you used the grommets and chicago screws. I use rivets and sew mine. Twelve pins is challenging unless you drill them after you glued the scales on. I did 12 pins, but had pre drilled holes and it was a hassle to get them all lined up when I put the scales on. I used a #30 drill for the 1/8 pins as it's .128 and gives me .003 clearance. The knife was D2 and I didn't want to use a carbide drill on it. Those carbides are expensive. The green and gold liners sets it off well.
