Appears to me the only piece of English is number 8 (left blank) that has the proper grain flow. Agree that's its got some lighter wood on the one side, so your stock turner will no doubt slide it to the other side as much as possible. I think Feather Crotch Black Walnut looks good on high grade Winchesters and almost nothing else. PS. Go for it. Can't take it with you for sure.
