I'm excited to join the JROC! I was fortunate enough to get #205! I'll put up a photo and experience later this week.
good choice on the brushes, they look really nice! The #175 I have quickly became my favorite. Beautiful work @Jayaruh
I'm also the proud parent of a @Jayaruh brush! It's the JR #113, boar knot. It got its first run today with some TOBS Sandalwood, along with my 1960 Gillette Fatboy, which I won at an auction yesterday! The shave gods were good to me this week! Jim is a pleasure to work with - I have a feeling this won't be my last adoption. The brush does a great job whipping up lather, and the face-feel is fantastic! They're just sooooo beautiful in person!
Shaved this morning with JR#161 NY Mets Special Edition. Whipped up a great lather off Catie's Bubbles "Florentine Fern". @Jayaruh makes a great brush
Jayaruh #96 was delivered today. This is my second Jayaruh brush, joining #163. It may or may not be the only brush Jim has made out of Purple Heart. I really like the color of the handle, and it holds a 26mm two band knot. Jim told me this handle was made before he had a lathe, so you are looking at old world craftsmanship right there. Thanks Jim. The first photo is a close up of #96 and the second one shows it next to #163, a brush Jim named the White Queen. I guess I get to name #96 and I am thinking it reminds me of a Plum.
Three boars JR 61, 164, and 189 arrived today. They join 164, 187 and 200 I have a nice even number now...maybe the JRBAD is over...maybe not Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I got # 111 and 112 on Monday; both Purple Heart. I'll post them after I get in and install the knots.
