GAW9576 They all do look very cool. I really like the brass and copper together also but I think the proportions of the original and 66 look better to me.

Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.
My Oumo knots order from AliExpress arrived today. I think I did all the possible combinations for these knots and handles without putting the synthetic in the horn handle. Although it actually looks good in the horn I just can't bring myself to put a synthetic knot in the horn. It just seems wrong. The 3 knots are 24mm and are a boar, a horse and a synthetic. The last picture is of a 30mm Boar in the other horn and wood handle. None of them are glued in yet. I look forward to getting them glued up and trying them out once I can decide which belongs where. So what do you guys think. A. B. C. D.

And here is a bonus close up of the tips of the Boar which look to already be splitting.

I lean towards A or B but obviously it's your preference that matters

I am leaning towards 2 of the choices but want to see what some opinions are without knowing which they are.
A side note, the Ruger handle is the end of a scope that my son broke. When life hands you lemons.....

The horse hair goes well with horn. I mean horses - cowboys - cows/bulls. Then the boars hair is stiff and ruff and the brass/copper pipe is hard and very industrial. I also like that there is a hint or just a little solder sticking out of the joint of the two pieces. Any of the three I would be proud to own. Damn you. Now I'm going to start looking at what I can turn into shaving brushes.
