Thanks guys! @makka Yeah, looking forward to using the new stock. It's already in-hand and sent off for bedding and reinforcement. It's an unusual thing to do with these stocks, but hopefully it will nudge the odds against it ending up as firewood.
@shift14 thanks for your concern, but not really bothered by the comments. They are essentially emotional responses with good intentions, the value of the example far exceeds the cost of that abrasion.
