so just curious what you folks prefer. fancy English walnut or fancy American walnut? I have both in my collection but would like to hear your thoughts. keeping in mind English walnut was $5.00 more than American walnut in 1905 aprox. I don't want that to sway your votes however. this may be a case of round barrel vs octagon barrel and we all know which one wins that race. but this i expect will be intetesting. cheers
