Handle Diameter (smallest): 30mm
Knot (Bob Quinn Elite Manchurian): 26 mm bulb/hybrid (at plug)

$100 to get things going.

As a side note, IF this has a Simpsons sticker on it, it would retail for about $350 (comparison to a Polo 10 in Super, as no Manchurian polo's currently available on their website afaik).

Bid what you like on this, but don't nickel and dime it. At least a $5 increments at this price.

Also - this is a monster of a brush..... the knot is very impressive. If you are looking for a ridiculously good brush by a local artisan, then bid hard.
