Hey, I hate making consecutive double posts, but what is the exact method of making a Witco real original homemade modern era piece?

What kind of wood were Witcos made from? It ain't oak.

Is there a thread on this? Can't find one.

Do you;

Carve something chunky.
Flame it deep.
Wire brush it down to the original wood.
Sand with 60 grit.
Flame it again, lightly.
Sand with 200.
Stain with pale amber.
Clear wax.

?

This would make a GREAT Chop demo, we could all pitch in. Those square ones of Wheeler's have been looking Witco-ish, but with more hand carved detail....
