Yes, brown part is made out of wood, and the actual knives are made out of
metal. I will rotate the texture by 5 degrees or so, and see if it looks
better.

At the moment there are 20 lights (one light rotated around the y-axis
1/10th of a degree 20 times by a loop).
I will try an arealight to see if that works better.

Thanks for the tips, they realy help.
