I think I'll leave it like this with just one coat of stain before final polish. I sorta like it.

Here's the template I made this morning for the 5 holes on the tag end. They're each 1/8. I'll use an old beat 1/8 drill bit for a center punch. That's because sometimes I want circular holes, and sometimes oval.
