    As usual, another fine looking handle there Andrew

    You sure have some talent and I also like it the way it is now. But as you said, it's up to the owner.
    And seriously the color and wood look great together. It's kind of like a BORG brush handle


    But to me, the finish where it is now is about perfect to my taste

    Another terrific looking handle, Andrew. It's always a treat to see your production from start to finish. Great job.

    Lovely brush. I am a huge fan of the linseed. Just brings wood to life. I've been playing with hut wax, polishes and waxes. Great work Sir.

    It's what I call applesauce smooth. Very, very nice.

    Well my wife will be the proud owner of this beauty. I already own one of Andrews brushes and it is by far my favorite out of all my brushes. I have twins like this one but they are wood and blue acrylic. My wife is also a wet shaver, however she uses my stuff. So this along with a mint condition lady starburst Gillette will be under the tree this year. Win win. She gets an awesome set and my harrywally doesn’t have to pull double duty lol. All this being said, I like the satin finish it has but knowing my wife’s love for shiny stuff I think it needs to be glossy. Overall Andrew this is a home run with a nice badger knot. Great Work man. Appreciate it very much. You are a true craftsman.

    Looks nice to me, the burl and the Alumilite compliment each other.

    Well there we have it! Gloss it is. I'm expecting the high gloss should look very good as well, but I'm glad I went through this process. In the future it is a great option for something less glossy.
