Here is my first attempt at restoring and rescaling and making a brush. Need to re-do the finish on the scales but have been enjoying using them each morning. The wood is Cocobolo. The blade is a Joseph Allen Non XLL with all pits and scratches sanded and buffed out. The knot is a UK Badger 21mm from Golden Nib.
