FWIW regarding the brushes we donated this years:
30 mm Cumberland Honey Chief (https://www.badgerandblade.com/foru...-30-mm-cumberland-honey-ebonite-chief.645252/) - Res ipsa loquitur.
26 mm First Batch, Ivory PK-47 (https://www.badgerandblade.com/foru...ity-london-26-mm-faux-ivory-pk-47-nos.645256/) - We turned the First Batch handles in October of 2014, so nine years ago this month. I think the first reference is in this post: Dark Holler Design Works preview - https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/dark-holler-design-works-preview.420972/page-7#post-6739751. On the following page of the same thread is photo of those handles. The offering was over subscribed; however, we held onto at least one or two examples of each.
26 mm Second Batch, Strawberry Amber PK-47 (https://www.badgerandblade.com/foru...ndon-26-mm-strawberry-amber-pk-47-nos.645257/) - We started turning the Second Batch in October-November 2014 and shipped them to Lee Sabini in England for knots in April 2015. They were the first we finished and engraved in Kansas City (Overland Park). I believe discussion begins here:

26 mm Vesuvius PK-47 (https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/paladin-shaving-26-mm-vesuvius-pk-47.645250/) - Vesuvius is a material that was custom-made for Paladin in Italy on a bespoken basis. What we have left on hand is all there is, and when that's gone, I don't expect there will be any more of it.
28 mm Bazooka Chief (https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/paladin-shaving-28-mm-bazooka-chief.645255/) -
We custom ordered Bazooka in a larger diameter than the vendor stocked. That was several years ago. We're down to about 15-18" of remaining rod, which is enough to turn 5-6 handles. I don't know of anyone else every having the material in that size; I don't know of any vendor who continues to stock it; and I don't expect we'll order any more of it.

SOTD pic with my new PK-47.... The brush performed wonderfully. I was a little worried because it seems to be more dense than my chief and much firmer too. However, once wet it was luxuriously soft (with still having great back bone). My Chief had a bit of scritch in the beginning, but the...

Does this mean you have enough Vesuvius to make another brush or 2?
