Hey there Gents,
A few weeks ago, I ordered a handle from our friend Rudy Vey. He delivered a beautiful Chubby/Stubby type handle in a material that he called a resin stabilized "Dymondwood" Charcoal. It is absolutely beautiful and I love it to pieces.
Anyways, my knot arrived to me this morning. It's a 24mm TGN Finest Fan XH. This is the same knot that I used in my first restore of a vintage Erskine K-200 Butterscoth brush that you will see later. The knot in the Erskine was set at 48mm. I wanted this one to have a little bit more backbone so I set it at 45mm.
It's drying now, but tomorrow morning I'll give it a first lather and take some bloomed photos for your enjoyment!
