Wood question

I decided to go with zebra wood on the small file knife, what is the best way to finish this wood so that the zebra patten pops?

Thanks

I like Boiled Linseed oil - 1 coat a day for a week, gives the lighter wood a warm glow

You can top it off with truoil, though I'd wait a while before topping the BLO
