Simms Set In Rubber Reknot

Hello

Just thought I'd show my lastest reknot. It's been a while in getting around to this as I've been studying the past two years, so a few handles got shoved into a drawer.

Its a Simms Set in Rubber (Rubberset) made in Canada brush.
Not sure what the original knot was but I decided to put a Frank Shaving Finest 2 Band 24mm knot in. I had planned to widen the hole a little, in order to fit a 24mm.
I have not polished the handle, just cleaned as I like that old look, it is an old brush after all and I like that character, well other than the old knot.
The photos are not great, just taken taken on the phone, wanted the wife to take some ones on her dslr but baby duties wont permit and the fact the charger has been stolen by the Borrowers.

Heres the original

I always liked green handles. The ferule looks to be in great shape. It should clean up nicely if you ever decide to loose the character.
