Build Your Own Prestige - Block 292

Mine arrived with a gorgeous grain pattern I wasn't expecting from the pictured block, and it fits my hand perfectly for whittling. Definitely plan to add lacquer since they mention the colors get more vibrant that way. Already thinking about ordering a second one.

The vibrancy really pops once you lacquer it, which I didn't expect from a raw block. Build quality is great, though I do have a small gap on one corner. Still, it's a solid addition to my shelf.

The block came out way more solid than I figured for something built to order. I haven't lacquered it yet, but even bare the grain shows through nicely. Took a couple weeks to ship since they build it after you order, which was fine by me.
