    Thanks, actually I got it from Nick at Sportshaving.com. I think it's polyurethane but I'm not sure. I don't know what the knot is, just that it's a synthetic.

    youngunn Where's my TSD aftershave balm???

    Yeah it's awesome to me. How many brushes can you think of that look like this? So far I've only seen a handful in pics that were in good condition.

    I saw one late last night on eBay by chance when searching for a different brush, after seeing what it looks like restored I'm now looking forward to seeing yours when it's finished. What a transformation!:)

    I remembered Dark having one that was either very similar or identical when I happened upon it on the bay.

    Well, I did pick up another vintage brush this weekend for sub-10 dollars...
    Maybe not so interesting visually...but it's a make (it's a Sta-Fast) and shape that I didn't already have...

    Looks great. I really like these old wooden handle brushes. New AD.......

    And the best thing is that they can often be had for 5-6 dollars. The most inexpensive one was 99 cents :)

    I know it's like we have our own little niche that hasn't been exploited yet.

    $40 is pretty reasonable for all that.

    Here is my latest score. Cost a grand total $19 shipped What I really wanted was the Schick G3. But who am I not to take 2 other cool razors.
    I used an ER 1912 all of November. So I am really happy to get a Star to add to the SE collection. You can't go wrong with a Gillette SS Black tip to boot.
