Thread: Manchurian Silver tip knots now what?

Ordered some knots from China claimed to be Manchurian silver tipped knots 30/80mm
they look nice, feel good just need to figure out what to do with them now. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Not being factious here

Put them in handles

At 80mm you most likely dont even need a handle

Yes handles, But I have no access to a lathe to make something cool, I was trying to come up with something different. I have looked around the net and haven't come across anything that strikes my fancy

Have you check out this guide in the Wiki?

Making a brush with no lathe - Straight Razor Place Wiki

Now we are talking! That I could do. THANKS
so do they look legit? they were pretty cheap compared to what a silver tip brush costs at a shop.
I mean I hope they arent dog or some kind of other critter.

Well, you can tell by their dialect. Manchurians talk funny Chinese.

Hey pixel,,, They would look good in a socket maybe, 1/2 drive or 3/4 ? The bottom of an old light bulb. Hmmm you could just take up wittling ! Might take awhile but you could make anything with a chunk of good wood and a knife.
