The outer surface extends from a leading end of the body to a trailing end of the body. The inner surface defines a cannulation that extends into the trailing end towards the leading end. The body comprises a leading body portion that defines the leading end, and a trailing body portion that defines the trailing end. The inlay is positionable within the cannulation of at least one of the leading body portion and the trailing body portion. The inlay includes an engagement member configured to engage the body to removably lock the inlay within the cannulation of the body.
