Lou here's a picture of an feather crotch English walnut blank that I have. It's very nicely balanced from side to side and is quarter sawn.

jOe, the Win 21 stock is sawn the same way from what I can see. Don't be confused by the fiddle-back in the wrist area. The flow looks, to me anyway, to be very straight through the wrist area. This stock should last forever unless someone runs over it with a truck.
