I did write the method I use for posh jobs (and large areas) using a ¾window brush a 4" jumbo mini short microfiber roller and a good 2"brush(£15) but it's just as much faf in words as in practice (and one brush can do it). I think f&b estate egg is fab it has the ability to be applied quite thick and that's how it will self level to a good finish and sands well in-between coats (it's very possible to get it in one), the general rule is - get it on, lay it off ,and leave it, the same with all paint, and in a specific order mostly on paneled doors, like all paint. This does actually make me want to get some out of my own pocket to try, as it's never been requested, the only alternative I can think of would be the oil base dead flat little green*, I don't know of anyone would match colour in dead flat finish (johnston's had one in oil white only)

Somehow reminds me of vintage ercol. The woodworm looks fresh so something that says it'll kill it. Personally I'd edge away from sanding to sand back to fresh wood it's well oxidize and aged. White sprit reverses wax finish and metholated spirit reverses french polish an experiment with each of those with a scrub on the medium wire wool would clean it up. If that provides no joy the next chemicals up are ... The eco paint strippers

I'd quiet like to do the whetstone thing too, more so for craft knifes & chisel blades, from working in a staff canteen I do have one of these which (while mostly idiot prof) can be used ineffectively (to much pressure for the blades hardness wrong direction) but it's very quick and little hassle and the steels can be replaced.
