Here are a couple of old handles that I cleaned up and reknotted with badger from Tony at TGN. The cream colored one is a nice Erskine handle with a good shape and feel (in my hand that is) reknotted with a 22mm Grade A Silver tip knot. The other is an EverReady 105T (was actually butterscotch on bottom lightened up to what I assume is a close to original color when I lightly sanded away stains and pits. Hopefully the wonderful yellow color will return but I am not sure. The knot is silvertip badger 21mm from Tony.

I would be lying if I told you I know or took it into consideration....just wanted to try my hand and had a couple decent donor handles:confused1
Okay, I just measured and it is about 55mm on each, handles are at 60mm each, so around 115mm total height. Pretty decent size brushes...

+1...have dealt with him once in the past. He's got great stuff.
I'm moving to a bigger place in about a month...first priority...by brush building/restoration workshop!
Very nice work. Two handsome brushes.
