I do not make many brushes, I had fun with this one. It is a deer bone handle with hemp wrap. The knot is a big boar bristle. The base is steel.

Definitely one of the more unique brushes I've seen. The hemp wrap really sets everything off. Nicely done Charlie!
I agree Charlie, very unique indeed. Nice work.
Looks lie something from one of the Diablo games... Not sure if that's good or bad...
What kind of hemp??? Looks like a dream!
Holy crap,that is nice,really nice,keep the dawg away from it:) Now my mind is spinning,I have a friend who has a real Human skeleton from a stanford anatomy lab,100% legal from the 1920s,and the hip bone is connected to the??? :))) great work man
Nice work Charlie.
Big Omega knot ? You can paint the house with those . :)
Thank you guys for the input.
It is plain hemp string from the craft store.Quote:

Apparently there are many ways to get legal human bones (and reasonably if its not a complete set). A skull will set you back quite a bit, but you would have one if the most talked about lather dishes on the forum:DQuote:

I did not realize they actually made human skin strops. I though that was a myth.
Charlie, I understand you apprehension, but some of your pieces look really well suited to the macabre. (I say that with deepest respect).

Charlie,
That brush is nothing short of awesome. The stand really adds to the rawness of the piece. You could go a step further and make an entire venison set; razor, brush, strop and bowl!
The rest of you guys are giving me the willies! If this keeps up there will be a Soylent Green club in no time!
Like any of your other work, super awesome. Is the hemp coated with anything?
Yes, the hemp and bone are coated with shellac.Quote:

Anyone else relieved this was an article about med students behaving badly and not an ad?Quote:
