    Default Lots of Loft !!

    Here is a made to order brush by William Barber of California (Pixelfixed). I asked him to set a knot that had plenty of loft, they way I like them. He put together this beauty for me.

    The brush is made of the following:
    Buffalo horn base cap, ivory insert, Musk ox spacer, stabilized Koa wood, TGN 24mm grade A knot, loft was set at 53.5mm.

    Thank you for looking

    Pixelfixed is ever the craftsman. I have one of his hand made loom strops. Never used it. It's too beautiful. I show it to many people.
