New Knots Arrive

I had three knots arrive today (9/10) from granvillage_green in China. They are 21x70mm pure badgers. I have had very good results with their knots so far. I went through the handles and decided that these may end up in #16, #17b, and #19. 

 I settled on putting the knots into these three handles: #16 (wild cherry), #17b (hybrid Omega/yellow pine), and #19 (koa wood). I set them with silicone adhesive.
