    Default Seramac 21mm in pink ivory

    Took the knot out of my 21mm Shavemac, and put it in a handle I turned out of pink ivory. Shortened the loft to just a touch below 50mm, and the handle is nice and long now, no more sudsy knuckles when whipping lather

    Very nice! I've seen knots taken out so the knot itself could be replaced, but first i've seen of taking the knot out to save/reuse the knot. How did you get it out without damaging it?
