IMHO, the fluted knob looks best with that setup, and I'd keep the brass finish with rosewood because it doesn't conflict with the warmth of the darker wood.
Amboyna burl would probably look good with nickel fittings... again the fluted knob... but this is all just my personal opinion.

I picked up a Lee Challenger press kit a couple of months back with the intention of setting up a loading bench. Unfortunately I haven't finished collecting all the necessaries, and components (bullets, primers, brass, powder) seem to be suffering the same price bumps and shortages as pre-loaded amm...

The one I tried is from an older batch, but I will be sure to try one when my order comes in. And I think Jani is right. The bulk discount is an incentive to buy, but this is a blade for which I would likely feel comfortable paying slightly more. The offer came at a good time, too, because I had bee...

Bryce tossed one of these in a little pack of blades he sent me when I bought a NEW from him. Since Paul is offering a bulk buy discount on them I figured I might as well give it a try just to see if it would be a good investment. ...honestly... why didn't you people clue me in sooner?
