thx Brian. I don't have it yet, but have been told it was restocked. Maybe he meant it was refinished, it certainly doesn't look like a parker finish on it.

I think I will actually try my hand at French polish on this one....Was already considering redoing the VH from the tru-oil I did to it last year lol.

A talented wood person should be able to inlet and shape drop points. If they don't look right, do it again.

I've see a couple now that were added using ivory, of all things! It certainly didn't look original but was so odd as to be, well, kinda interesting. The examples I saw must've been rather old because the ivory appeared genuine and the finish of the wood appeared to have quite a bit of mileage on it.
