    Default Another Brush Handle

    This one is drilled for a 26mm knot.
    I decided to use the last of the. Bullhorn I had with Brazilian teak top and bottom. I like it. it has a translucent quality in the horn. Little natural flaws here and there. Makes it truly unique and one of a kind.

    Yes, the shape is an old one as well as odd! lol Once the knot is in it though it will look much better. I will be doing others oout of buffalo horn in the near furure.

    Will you tell me how you get the horn so polished? Are you buffing the bone or is it the finish you are putting on the wood?

    I sand the horn to 1200 grit then buff on a wheel.
