So now that we've all seen the B&B '09 LE, who likes that handle in black and who prefers it in butterscotch?
I'm just asking because it appears there is a lot of interest in black. I know this won't change anything, and I'm not trying to stir the pot here. I'm just curious to put some numbers behind the opinions that have been expressed.
I hope this isn't an inappropriate ...

+1 you can get black anywhere...butterscotch is definitely a cool idea.
Even though black brushes are common, there isn't a black brush that looks like the '09 LE. For this handle shape I prefer black, especially with a white or silver modern Kent logo. However, I'll likely purchase one of these no matter the color. I think butterscotch works better with a chunkier handle shape. The '08 LE's handle shape and color are perfect for one another.

I generally prefer the darker colour schemes with this shape of brush, my only concern is whether a "butterscotch" coloured polyester will really have the similar look of a bakelite butterscotch. I don't know.
I also doubt this would happen, but what about offering the LE with a choice of handle color? I'm sure there are some folks that would even buy one of each.
Maybe that's not a very "LE" idea.

Butterscotch just makes it look like a cheap plastic that's been used since the 50's. If you want to sell a really nice brush you should make it natural an elegant (ivory, hardwood, ebony) not like it came out of a plastic stamp mold.You won't find me buying a B&B butterscotch, but I...
