Just threw it out there for fun and wondered if anyone has ever ordered any off Etsy. Some of those look sweet for a good price.

Most are just vintage handles or DIY turned handles with generic knots for $100+

If you can find a Rooney or Simpson for cheap, I say go for it. As for the rest, some would make decent project brushes but I have never really been tempted to purchase any.

Too many brush makers on here that have proven track records and we know what knots they are using.

Or get one of the B&B guys to turn a handle and stuff a TGN or WD knot in yourself to add a bit of your own personal touch.

Roger that!

A crappy knot is a crappy knot no matter how pretty the handle is.

Knot for nothing but I have always been fooled by a pretty face. Thanks for the advice.
