I was going to have a go at a razor stand this lunchtime, but instead the latest batch of knots turned up - I couldn't resist the temptation and spent the allotted time on a brush that's actually for me! :lol:
Here's the little beauty - a 16mm Best Badger set in Box (a piece that Arrowhead sent me a while back that was too little for a full size brush!)
Next to a 24mm Finest for comparison:
Height 80mm
Loft 40mm
It's rare to see such tiny brushes, the knot was originally intended to go in a travel tube brush, but it was just too nice to use in such a functional setting. I'm hoping the knot performs well, as I've heard good things about the Simpson equivalent and it really seems like a unique addition to my collection.
Will let you all know how it performs once I've got it glued and cured!
