BTAD Anyone else suffer from this?

**Commander Quan** · 03-18-2012, 04:03 PM

I like the diamond point

**Isaac** · 03-18-2012, 04:38 PM

I have been wanting to pick up some diamond points, but haven't made the decision on what patterns to do it with.

**BRuhling** · 03-18-2012, 05:21 PM

The diamond point is from The Cordial Churchman. The other is from BeauTies, Ltd.

You guys are killing me... and convincing me. Good looking bowties, Bill!

**Isaac** · 03-18-2012, 07:30 PM

ill have to get some pics up of all my bow ties. Not that I have that many. I wish there was a way to post pictures directly from your iPhone/android. I also have a question. i find that when I do my bow ties, I tend to twist the actual knot. I don't particularly like it, but thats the way it happens. Does everyone else's knots look perfect?

**BRuhling** · 03-18-2012, 08:02 PM

Personally, I don't want my knot to look perfect. If it is, people might assume it's not a freehand bow tie!

TOmorrow will either hold my Blenheim by BTL or their Solid Maroon. I can't decide.

Enabler!

I hadn't seen the Blenheim on their website, so I went to check it out. Now I've got three new ties coming my way: A Very slim/diamond Blenheim, a Slimline/Standard Dawson Range, and a Slimline/Standard Brad...

Love the pictures of you all in bowties! Let's have some more! Please!

**Isaac** · 03-19-2012, 07:51 PM

This is my modest collection. I have way to many blues at the moment. Excuse the pic, as I took it with horrible lighting.

**BRuhling** · 03-20-2012, 05:27 AM

Nice selection, Isaac. Is that an oil creek (second from right)? I like the look of that one! You need to get some other shapes now, though, a few straight and some diamond point will have you set!

Good catch, it is an Oil Creek. You know, I may pick up some diamond points, but I am heavy set, and don't think there is any way in the world I can pull of a straight.

This guy does an awesome knot, but for the life of me, I can't seem to replicate it

**BRuhling** · 03-21-2012, 05:18 PM

Anyone get the new Bill's Private Stock catalog from BTL? I'm trying to decide between Italy and Cape Harrison

**Isaac** · 03-21-2012, 05:35 PM

I didn't get it. That is very odd.

I would go with Italy hands down.

My newest acquisitions:

**Isaac** · 03-24-2012, 01:52 PM

I love the pointed tip one. Very regal :)

THis is from Beau Ties Ltd. Its design is that of a NYC skyline...

I chose this today, with nothing to do, but I look good doing nothing :)

**Commander Quan** · 03-25-2012, 03:06 AM

Is there a bow tie in that picture? I was distracted by the spot you missed while you were shaving your chin.

**Isaac** · 03-25-2012, 07:49 AM

Ouch...haha

**Isaac** · 03-25-2012, 10:18 AM

Here is one I picked up at Brooks Brothers, but the brand escapes me, and I'm not taking off the tie to check. It has buttons instead of sliders to adjust the size that you want. Interesting tie, and a nice feel to it. The color is baby/sky blue. Sorry about the bad lighting.
