I have a source of ten year old air dried paper birch milled here in Alberta. It is superb strong hard clear quarter sawn lumber at 2" as sawn, natural slab sided.
What shaping and inletting characteristics can be expected. My idea does not involve carved ornamentation or prized figured wood. Just outstanding stability and strength. Finishing will be fairly primitive and dark, think tribute to a general store late flint or conversion rifle.
