So, after 120 grit, hand sanding the stick to bare wood and shaping the hand grip area with a rash and sandpaper, to 240. That was the toughest bit, because the 120 grit left quite a few deep scratch marks for the 240 to take care of. Then it was another go with 400, then repeat with 600. Not there yet, because next up is 000 steel wool pad, then 0000. Now, the wood is smooth, almost like its been polished. My arms are sore from the few hours of sanding and buffing! Here's the results - bare wood with a dab of oil on the comb to show its colour after oiling.
