    That's a sweet looking brush Kris! It's a very classy looking handle. The three materials flow together perfectly.

    So what kind of wood is it? And where did you track down a 30mm HMW knot??

    Thanks Andrew!

    The wood is walnut, and I got the knot via alibaba from a Mr. Chen (who I'm not sure is still trading there). I bought it last year and haven't looked on the site recently so I'm not sure what the availability is like now. The other brushes I have made with his knots are now my favourites, so while it took quite a while for them to arrive, they were worth the wait.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
