Nice shave! I haven't used CF in a while, but I found it more slick than Stirling as well. The scent doesn't hurt either...
Welcome back Brent!
Great stuff Fred. I tend to be my own worst critic, and have trouble posting things that I find flaws in as well, which is pretty much everything I've made lol. I'm not too familiar with the material you're using, but if you want a nice shine on it you could always try some Mothers or Maas polish. I've used it on all kinds of things with good results. It's best to try it on a scrap piece first on the chance that it might mess it up.
The material is also known as Paper Micarta. I thought I should be able to polish it as is is without having to apply a finish. I think the MAAS polish is a good idea. I will give it a chance. Of course, I will trial it on a scrap piece first. Don't want to mess up the scales.
Below is a pic of the scales:
