    Is 50mm the only available length in the horn handle, I mean not with this GB but generally, the reason I ask is preferably I would like a handle about 65mm long? Even visiting the Kimson web site they all seem to be the same length.

    Cheers

    Hi John,

    To my knowledge they are all the same length, I would e-mail Kimson and see if he has any longer ones available :)

    I guess I'm still confused about the color options. I understand that the brush shown at the beginning of this thread and the brush on Shavemac's website is the blond horn. I haven't seen the dark colored option shown on this thread nor is their one shown on Shavemac's order page.

    For a while I thought the dark horn option meant that it would be all black but I guess that's not the case. Kimson's website shows a lot of different horns. Am I correct that the darker ones are the ones that will be the optional dark horn but won't be entirely black? It will have some light coloration but more of the dark tones? I know that we're dealing with nature here and no two will be alike but I just want to make sure I'm understanding the difference between the two options. Thanks for the trouble to answer all these questions

    AFG, if you click the "More Info" link on the order page, you'll see more pictures, including the dark horn and the bright horn. :happy088

    Thanks everyone, I think I have it figured out now. I did not see the link on the order page that would take me to the dark handle. The examples of the darker ones with light highlights on Kimson's web page is what I would like to get. Probably hard to go wrong with either one.

    OK. I'm in.

    After some careful consideration (ok, I agonized over this decision :rolleyes:), I went with a bulb-shaped, dark-horned monogrammed brush with no logo.

    Now all I have to do is sit and be patient. :eek:

    Sounds great Bob! :D Where did you choose to get the monogram placed? Base of the handle of side of the brush?

    Went with the side of the brush and readable when the brush is standing and no logo. I just felt that no logo gave it just a wee bit more of a custom look. :rolleyes:

    Well since these look so tempting I just placed an order on a Dark horned fan tip brush

    Ok Folks,

    Yea, they are looking good...;)

    The 10% discount is great and helps offset the shipping costs...also makes this Genuine Horn brush a very good deal as no others are offering a brush of this material and quality for a similar price..

    It would be nice to hit the full 15% discount, but it is only another $7 in savings......I spend that on a 6 pack of beer that is gone in 1 or 2 nights...:)

    Here's a comparison photo I was asked for....
