I think it looks great . Wouldn't touch the timber. Can see its patina in the pics.
The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

WOW! thanks for the kind words. It's been awhile since I checked in here.... I am pleasantly surprised to see all those nice compliments. Thanks.
I've worked myself out of a job... waiting for some more blades to come in from the States. I'm sure Canada Customs is taking their sweet ol' time. I'm just itching to do some more.
Here are some pics of them (would this be razor porn? ;-) )
