Semogue AKAIK do not have a 26mm knot boar.
@culcreuch
Rates his Boti boars very highly, he could chime in if he's around.
Yes the knot itself i have a handleWhen you say 'boar knot' are you looking for a knot to set in a handle or (just) a brush. Knots alone seem much harder to source than the badger equivalent ...
The Boti boars break in very nicely and have a lot of backbone. They are excellent knots....however I would be remiss if I didn't say that the GFS Wild Hog has an exceptional knot and works really well@culcreuch

Seems to be sold out on shave time although i’m pretty sure i can source something as equally goodThe Boti boars break in very nicely and have a lot of backbone. They are excellent knots....however I would be remiss if I didn't say that the GFS Wild Hog has an exceptional knot and works really well
Like you i also like Scritchy so don’t want to rush in and buy anything.
Thanks mateI think you will end up with a highly desirable brush whatever happens Mike. Teensy bit envious, not gonna lie!
Yes that’s the one.Are these the ones?

They look like they have barely been processed.
So much so, you can almost smell the pig on them!
(it's a sign of quality IMO, the less bleached/processed a boar knot has been, the better!)
They look tasty.Yes that’s the one.
The company don’t have a website but are on facebook so i can’t look as i don’t have facebook.
But that’s certainly the company.
if you think they are decent then i’m in for a surprise
