Here is the first brush I ever made. I bought the 5.5" Elk Antler with Chrysocolla end cap on eBay as a knife handle & cut it in half. I drilled a hole in it for the 24mm silvertip badger knot. The handle is 57mm with a 55mm loft, total length 112mm. Once I get my lathe over here from my mothers house, I will be able to make my own handles.
