But the dream was magnificent! The anticipation marvellous! We impoverished pensioners have to get our kicks somewhere - and we cock a snoop at dull reality!
 
I've used mine a couple of times now...I always liked the handle but the knot isn't really to my taste.

What loft do owners have, I was expecting 48mm and got 50mm?
 
Number 151 is here with me.

I really like the handle shape, weight and colour. However the loft is not really for me, I prefer them shorter and denser. So now I have a dilemma, do I keep it knowing that it probably won't get much use or do I put it up for sale/trade? :icon_confused:

How do other people who have used this brush a few times find the knot performance?
 

I found as the knot relaxes the scritch dies down which is nice.

If you don't like the loft, when the knot relaxes, it still won't be favoured by you.

I would advise stick with it though, see if it suits you. After around 20 shaves you will know if it is for you or not.
 

You could try reducing the loft by wrapping a tight band or O ring round the base of the knot to test.
If this works for you then you could reset the knot in the handle to the required height.

Go with Dipesh's recommendation first though as that may do the trick.
