Brush of the day.

View attachment 75668
The above is an SotD photo from 2013 and the big devil is still going strong. The wood is a shade darker and it could with a light re-oiling but the split tips are great and it’s a complete soap eater. The knot is the large Omega boat at around 27mm. I face lather exclusively too. Hand-carved with a wee sharp knife and some quiet winter evenings (summer is for the gairden).

I’ve got a nice bit of oak rescued from a bonfire heap so must make another handle soon. Well, I’ll likely axe out a blank ready for winter whittling. Maybe…
My kinda brush!
Good to see you posting again, matey!

... and James Bronnley. That gives me nice memories. Good splash, that.
