    Default Awesome Brush

    So a while back another member by the handle BWP1474 made a brush. It was made by turning at an offset or something. I don't turn wood so I don't really know but it looked really cool and seemed like it would be very comfortable in the hand so I said that in the thread. He responded back by PM and said that he would send me one with out a knot for free as long as I took pictures of the finished product. I decided to do a boar knot as I haven't really had a boar brush. I took some other picks with it loaded up with soap but they wouldn't transfer over for whatever reason but here is the one I do have. It really does feel nice in the hand when loading up the brush or making the lather. Anyways heres the picture.

    I thought that was a cool handle the first time I saw it and once again .....:<0) That boar looks like it has some very soft ends.
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    It is very soft. It is a very old knot too though so definitely time to break in. It feels like a silver tip but with more backbone than any badger brush would have.
