How do attach scale to a folder?

[Danh600]

So last winter I purchased some knife blanks and attached handles to them. I made about or so. As I got experiance I got a little better.

This one came out pretty good.

So as the weather cools I am ready to get back in the shed and do some more knives. Right now I am much better at working with wood than metal. So I not wanting to forge just yet.

Here is my question for today. I purchased a folder. It will be the first one for me. I am not sure how to attach scales to this knife. I haven't been able to find a video.
Can I just rough up the handle and epoxy the scales straight on there or do I have to have pins for strength. Can I just use regular pins and be sure and sink them to the proper depth?
Looking for some ideas.

Those look like threaded holes in the handle, so I would say they expect you to use screws to attach the scales.

Thank you for your reply. I had to put it under a stronger light, but yes those are threaded holes.
