Well I think it's the most elegant handle ever turned but I would say that. If you bowl lather, you know you are in for a treat. You took the one & only!!!

Couldn't agree more regarding the elegant handle! I rarely bowl lather these days, perhaps this one will help reacquaint me with my scuttles!

Re: E3 Manchurian. Yep, that wins the Elegance prize. =P~

1. Mark, you wouldn't happen to have more photos of this ghost?
2. Does "bowl lathering" preclude face lathering or using soaps?
3. Could a follow-up be made to 22/50 specs, or is 20/48 locked in?

Ben took the first, my last, my everything ...

When I've made a couple up I can pm you a few shots.

"Bowl lathering" to me is a state of mind ... If the cap fits. I face lather personally but crack open the bowl if time permits, maybe if I'm taking Mrs. W out on a Saturday night ...

The 50 loft is do-able but the bore sizes are pretty much locked.

Bad Ben. Lucky Ben.

I'll look forward to the photos.

I'd do everything with this brush. Maybe even take it dancing.

Actually, the 48mm loft is okay, as things look now. I was more concerned with keeping those proportions, but she doesn't look half-bad with those hips. I'm used to the older versions with the taller loft, is all. Let 'er ride.

Thanks.

Uh-oh. I shouldn't have clicked that link. Good thing they're out of that tulip 3.

I just took delivery on an M7 Manchurian. I am so tempted to pick up the E3 manchurian.

I hear you, I've got both GYLE M7's and the 2 band ivory M7, wanted a Manchurian M7, but decided it was overkill, hence the Emperor 3 Manchurian.

It's been a long time but i succumbed again... 8)
CH3, M7, BH, PL8 all in Manchurian. Sadly the E3 and T3 were already out of stock but i'm convinced they'll show up again, sooner or later... :)
