    As you know from the thread below that Rob at Zen Shave provided a wonderful Granadillo Handle with a pin from Game of Thrones placed on the base.

    Well, I waited a while to determine what I wanted to place in this handle. Here is the final completed product.

    The 22 mm knot fits perfectly since the glue bump requires an extra 2 mm of clearance and it really provides balance to the entire package. This will be a brush I will enjoy hopefully for many years to come.

    Again, thanks Rob. It is beautiful! :happy096:

    Incredible as always. Rob did a great job on the handle and it looks even better with some badger fur in it.

    Gary, is that a TGN 2 band? Lovely looking brush.

    Thanks!

    No, it is not TGN. That is a left over knot that I had a knot maker make last year when I did this series of 2 band testing. The images went away from the thread when Photobucket went bad on me. I may have to do a new thread to post all the results.
