I recently bought a pretty beat-up infill panel plane, with a very stout Matheison and Sons blade, that's turned out to be a pretty good user. The edges of the hole in the tote made it rather uncomfortable to use for any extended period, so I smoothed the edges. I also had to repair the horn as a result of a brain fart, so, with a fair amount of the existing finish gone, I thought I'd take the rest off and start over. Though not figured, the walnut underneath looks pretty nice-"warm" is the word that comes to mind.
I have some Watco Dark Walnut, Tru-Oil, MinWax Antique Refinisher, (it just appeared one day) and, I think, some Borg BLO, in the shop. I also have some Seal Coat which I can use under or over the finish I chose. Any suggestions? (Doesn't have to come from the above list.)
Thanks.
