Inlays are made by cutting a shaped pocket or void into a piece of furniture, and then filling that pocket with another piece cut to the same shape. Although inlays can look impressive, they are not all that difficult to make. All you need to do is follow some simple techniques and you can create some amazing inlays.
In a wood matrix, inlays commonly use wood veneers, but other materials like shells, mother-of-pearl, ivory or metal may also be used. Master craftsmen who make custom knives continue a tradition of ancient techniques of inlaying precious metals; additionally, many new techniques which use contemporary tools have also been developed and utilized as well by artisans.
