    Thanks Mike, and you're welcome!

    I knew you're a tobacco guy, so I did briar burl and finished it the same way a pipe would get done. 3 coats of oil, buffed with tripoli, diamond, and then carnauba. The inside pocket was sealed with 3 coats of CA and the knot is A Virginia Sheng, 24mm finest.

    Oh, and I oriented the grain to give that flame like appearance.

    A man who likes what he likes, I like that. Your a leader not a follower! If you don't like it after a few goes, don't be afraid to sell that thing! Won't bother me..... but it might Rick! Ha.

    Very nice brush. I think if you give it an honest go you will find you have days you want a soft brush and days were you don't. Personally if I miss a day shaving I like the stiffer brush to get through the whiskers to the skin. Happy birthday !
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.
