Three uses now, was off to a rocky start but once I realised varying the pre-soak time considerably changes the brush performance (yes I'm still a boar newbie) it really came on song. Also, the knot initially seemed to be quite sparse but as the tips split the knot really fills out, I guess Omega know exactly what their doing!

...this brush works for me so well, a really superb boar and a steal in terms of it's performance...hope it fits you...

Great trio of piggies you have there, push them closer at night and they will breed, this time next year you could have 42 or more :) P.

They are standing in cabinet like that but for now no success in getting them breed :) maybe they are shy in front of synthetics

A bit late to the party but only recently I began to appreciate boar brushes....

Two Semogues, one is the 2000 knot in a RR 400 handle and the 2nd appearance on this thread for the SOC.

I didn't think I'd use the Semogue 2000 again it was always a bit of a hit and miss experience with it for me.... I then I figured out what I was doing wrong.... the new handle also made a positive difference. I now load the brush for twice as long and I can build a good lather.

 
Apologies for the iPhone pics. Vintage - all unused but cleaned, apart from the Kent:
L to R: Kent military issue, marked 1944; Erasmic; Culmak Spartan; Cussons - in all probability a generic, found in Imperial Leather and Boots sets; an interesting (declared) boar found in an old Boots Monogram set, which might be next in my rotation - the filthiest brush I've ever encountered.
