After testing a few different knots in the handle the obvious choice was an Omega 22 mm boar knot from TGN since this would've had a boar knot originally. I think it made for a stunning looking brush, and, after using it twice, an outstanding performer as well. The handle is very ergonomic, and the Omega boar is about as good as it gets. I didn't want the bucket these come with on this brush so I used a Dremel with a cutting wheel to remove it.  Here's what it looks likes.   Thanks again, Alan! |

You have a nice color combo there Tom. Boar bristles look far better without the fake badger dye job. The butterscotch handle compliments that gorgeous boar knot. This brush really stands out!

That looks fantastic Tom ! I have been admiring your work on these classic brushes. I have to admit that I have an affinity for the older handles.
