My Little Travel Brush Restore...mmm butter.

[Rockytop]

Did this little butterscotch restore recently. It has a 16mm knot, set at 42mm. It is an old German handle that I bought in an Ebay lot. I have my Rooney 3/1 in the pic for comparison.

What do you think?

Nice lookin brush,I like the colors. Very mellow.

Very cool handle. Definitly one of my favorites that I have seen.

What type of knot is it? I have a 16mm two-band finest knot being attached to a handle as we speak.

That's exactly what it is, from TGN.

Well, let me know how it shaves! I should be getting it back in a little while, so I might post a picture in here too.

I've been eyeing that knot myself. How does it lather?

I don't think you would want to use it everyday. It's just to small ... imo. I think the best use is to face lather, while reloading the brush between passes. It simply will not hold enough lather. But, it gives you something to play with.

I was thinking of it for a travel brush. I think I'll go ahead and get it and give it a go.

I mostly got it for a travel brush. Maybe a "change of pace" brush every now and then too.

+1 What Vlad said.

I really like the 2 tone effect.

Where did you get the 16mm knot? Can't see them on the TGN site. Just interested.

Edit: Just had another look and it is on the TGN website!

The Wee Scot gives me enough lather for three passes.
