I must have messed this one. Absolutely beautiful. I'm a sucker for a curvy Sulu piece.

Great job on the blade, which looked like it had some areas of deep pitting.Did you use an abrasive cloth? What grit if so?

I always try to use 600 fine grit when possible. Sometimes with tougher jobs I'll use a more abrasive grit and then finish with the finest grit, typically 600.

Some of the 3M and Ace sanding sponges do a terrific job, and they are available in a variety of degrees of coarseness.
