Do the pic's do the colour justice? I don't think I've knowingly seen the finish before. Is the finish like a 'Harry Leary Turbo' but darker??

Best way I can describe the finish Steve is like 'black glass'. ;) It has worn away in lots of places and rust speckles all over but it is what it is, I aint gonna try clean it up, love it as is & defo a keeper.
