I don't believe the Remington "realwood" is even similar. The picture I saw and the description indicated that it is two slabs of upgrade wood laminated with a layer of some plastic glue between them. This is to use two pieces of pretty wood that were plain on one side and are now laminated into one piece of laminate that is pretty on both sides. There is no decal or other phony grain applied to the outside. That's my understanding. Couldn't find much on Remmy's website. JL
