Welcome to JROC @lloydrm. Your brush is one fine looking brush. Jim does a great job on his brushes. I love mine. Enjoy!
Thank you. I think I have quite a lengthy breaking in time ahead of me with that loft. I am patient when the reward is a great brush such as this.
Got mine in the mail today! Man what a classic looking brush. I love the look of it. I just had to shave tonight instead of in the morning. I’ve never shaved with a boar brush before and expected it to be pretty scritchy. It ended up not being scritchy one bit. I really enjoyed how much backbone it had as I’m so used to my uber floppy brush. Great brush @jayruh Going to have to get another one in the near future now. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Welcome to The Rabbit Hole! Best of both worlds; JR handle & a boar knot. Is it an Omega boar? They make great knots, but the handles tend to be on the cheap plastic side.
Yeah it is an Omega Pro knot. I really liked the feel of it for the first shave Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Let's welcome @brit to Jayaruh Owners Club (JROC) . He has adopted JR 282, a 400 style brush, zebrawood handle with a Maggard 2-band badger.
Congrats, @brit and @Jrdelgado! Superb handles and excellent knots in them too. @Jrdelgado, I have a cashmere knot like that in my 30DC LE brush and have nothing but praise for it. And @brit, I bought a Maggards 24mm two - band badger knot when they first started stocking them last year, mounted it in a handle and have had first-class performance from it. I would buy either knot again without hesitation.
