    Default newest brush

    hey,

    just finished my newest brush. its a 26mm extra stuffed finest set at 50mm.
    its a cocobolo handle. ill do some more pictures wenn i waxed the handle and glued the knot in







    the 26mm finest xtra hair feels really great. how is it compared to the 24mm?
    i do not have the possibility to test it out, cause the brush is for someone else.

    Default Beautiful Brush

    Timo:

    That's a beautiful brush. Very nice work! Please repost pictures once you get it waxed. As you know we love razor/brush porn around here. Thanks for sharing.

    That is one sweet looking brush. I love the coco colored wood with the two band knot, very handsome indeed.

    I have had both a 24 and a 26mm TGN extra stuffed finest, and the 24mm was much more dense than the 26. SliceOfLife had the same experience with his. This may have been a quark or an issue they have remedied in the last few months, but it seem to be common.

    I tried a MMOC once. I've sinced switched to straight razor shaving because it was less dangerous.

    Visually stunning. Color and brush loft to handle height looks nice. Where do the fingers want to grip on the handle? The "waist" seems a bit thin. Nice brush!

    Regards.

    I would hold it right under the knot on the widert Part. It feels great holding it.

    Excellent, to be honest I felt a bit over critical (go figure) after being harsh on your beautiful new brush. For the record, I cant wait to see pictures of it when its all polished up!
