Wanted to share my custom Relic Wood Boxes that I had made. I use these for black powder shooting/ black powder storage.

Thank you for the kind words Bob. For me 1851 is the best overall looking open top, 1860 is a extremely close second.

I have shot it and it sparks well and the fit / finish / marking quality is top tier in my opinon.
This is just speculation but it looks like it has been defarbed some time in its...
