    Great job there Texx

    How authentic is the Olive? I ordered some once that came with a certificate, but when I got it, the certificate was just a colour photocopy You rely heavily on the honesty of the seller.

    That is a sure bet I would say Mine came from a USA supplier

    The blanks certainly look like they have really good figure too

    My BOW came from Gawd himself. Can't be more genuine than that, can you.

    Thanks John, that's "Gawdelpus " in case you were wondering who I was referring to.
