My Very First Brush
I set silver tip badger bristles in a Gabon ebony handle with fine silver studs and a turquoise cabachon. Pretty goth, eh?

Now I have to make a stand to hold it, a mug/scuttle and a razor or three. I bet it will be scary.

The morning star clubs faded from use several hundred years ago if I recall. My memory is fuzzy though

So does that mean you like my design and handiwork or are you making some sort of insulting joke?

Nice!
It's the Punk Brush! If joey ramone was a wet shaver this is the brush he woulda used. I like it!

Since you made that rock n roll brush, go the whole hog and make a dragon's claw brush holder and a skull shaped shaving mug.

PS: I like it, brings me back to 1984, the year I graduated HS.

Neither - I mean that you are certainly not old enough (in reference to the morning glory clubs of the middle ages.)
Your handiwork is fantastic!

That looks great, and I have a feeling it will be easy to grip even when you get lather on your hands, which will be handy.
