Good morning gents. Spent some of the rainy weekend working on the below. On HarryWally's recommendation I ordered some bigger knots in the silvertip variety for my next round of brushes and they really are significantly nicer than best badger hairs. Guess that's why the price doubles for the knots. Tried to make one in a classic style that had a nice feel to it.

I used the same ebony as I am using for my 7 day set of Non Xll's and this will probably end up as part of that set. Used a CA finish on this as opposed to the shellawax cream for water resistance.
Here she is post soaking and after she started to bloom out.

I'm happy with the results, and like the feel of the brush. Good backbone and yet still softer tips than any others I own.
Cheers.
