Haven't seen this one before....at least with these same measurements! []
I really like this "new" shape. It feels good in the hand. Not sure what the wood is.
I also wanted to try a new finish - it's "friction lacquer" First polish the wood up to 2000 grit. After that, Deft brushable semi-gloss rubbed on with the lathe stopped and then frictioned for a bit; repeat as needed to build some depth. It's as smooth as a baby's....well, it's real smooth. Now it gets to ride in my pocket to see how it holds up.
