JohnnyP, if the wood is teak as Ben suggests it may be, then a little teak oil may be an option, it doesn't make it particularly shiny, but it will darken it a shade and bring out the grain. Teak oil also goes away with time and has to be renewed. If you didn't like it, just don't oil it again. It's just a thought. Nice stuff you're carving up there, I'm sold on the Polynesian weapons.
