Alibaba

One of the most beautiful handle creation - at least for me - is the Lee Sabini Alibaba handle. The Rooney counterpart to Simpson's Persian Jar used to be available in three sizes. The largest knot measured about 22mm.

First appearing with the amazing Heritage 3 band hair and then followed by the equally stunning 2 Band Heritage knots.

Those times are long gone and I am lucky to own one Alibaba of each Heritage knot.

Today I can add to this collection the upsized  creation of Lee and Brad Sears: the Alibaba in Finest with a 26/50mm knot in beautifully grained faux ivory with a tortoise ring.

Palm lather reveals a resilient knot with soft tips. Will be on deck tomorrow.

Love the accent ring on that M&F, really sets it apart.

Really like the Alibaba style handle, this one has always been one of my favorites....

How do the tips and face feel of the 3 band Super do for you?
