Well, while I am going to toss my vote in for the scarf

the butt joint would be recommended these days. It gets back
to craftsmanship vs money.

Never tried the following butt (sic) I think I might next time. How
about setting up a finger joint cutter in the shaper/routah table and
prepping the square cut ends with this. Shouldn't take very long,
once set up, and the gluing surface should be pretty good.

Hmmm.
