My Svord Peasant

thanks mate it is appreciated, mine is oil based, but will give it a go on some scrap first.
think i still have the odd pot of spirit based some where.
will see if there is a difference.

Would be handy to see the difference.

I recently bought the spirit based light brown to use on some sheaths when I get chance to make them. Oh and buy the leather as I'm running on a few scraps
So just thought it should be worth a try. Being thin spirit based it should penetrate well enough. Depending on the density of the wood grain.

Well mate, I had a little go to day, my clams are beech, and didn't like the look of the light brown, so I dyed them with walnut, and I'm very happy bud.
thanks again bud.

Glad to hear it worked out ok. I do love natural wood finish, but it just did not look right on this so had a go. If all else fails you sand it back joys of wood. But this worked out well, so I'm glad you got colour you liked.
