    I have been kicking around an idea for a custom brush for a while and have seen some really cool designs. I wanted to go with a longer more elegant handle and mostly have it be something different. After a lot of research and discounting swirl and marble patterns I settled on a German flag design because of my ancestry and love for all things German.

    I contacted a Gentleman by the name of Doug Korn and told him basically what I wanted. The price was reasonable and he was very helpful in completing my design. the brush arrived today. It's really remarkable. Fit and finish is superb. The yellow and red layers are translucent while the black is a rich onyx. The seams are as smooth as glass. The handle is 59mm tall and finished with a Nathan Clark Ubersoft synthetic knot set at 22x53.5mm loft.

    Very nice brush, I like that - Glückwunsch ;)



    I hate that as well :eek: but pure Schmalz (without the herbs and stuff) is a great fat for frying. Especially Bratkartoffeln
