Fiddleback, yes, that's the term that eluded me earlier.

It just looked so uniform, and it's on a $600 Sterlingworth. I couldn't imagine that someone would spend that kind of money on a re-stock for a Sterly. I suppose this would be a job that was done for the love of the gun, and not for the money it might bring.

Thank you for your replies!
