Eagle Oil Can Clone

I've downloaded the plans for the oil can clone and plan to make a few of these as Christmas gifts. Of course, I'll post links to the video when finished. :)

My question concerns the body of the oil can itself. I will be using aluminum instead of brass because that's what I got a supply of. Although I like the look of polished aluminum I'm considering knurling a portion of the body to make it easier to hold.

What say ye? Good idea, or should I leave the body slick?

I have an Eagle pump oiler and the body is smooth. I doubt that knurling will make it less slippery if that is what you want.
