Hey, David...is that the unbleached knot? If so, I think yours is the same as this one here. They've been out of stock for a while and I contacted the vendor and they have some on order. I LOVE the look of that brush!!! Heart
Yes, that's the one, Brian. The unbleached bristles are fantastic & combine it with that gorgeous olive-wood handle, it's heaven on earth, my friend!

DecemBoar Shave #11

Razor: Rex Ambassador
Blade: Personna Platinum
Brush: Omega 49
Soap: TOBS Sandalwood cream

Very smooth 3 pass BBS shave with this combination tonight. The well broken in Omega 49 is a delight. Second night in a row face latheromg; quite a rarity for this dedicated bowl latherer.

That brush looks great! This is mine, which I bought new and has been lathered ten or twelve times. My hope is that someday it will look like your brush!

This TGN knot is becoming a fast favorite! And I notice my photos are not conveying the true color of the Coho handle. In my mind's eye, it is greyish silver, but on my monitor is looks to be darker. The photo from yesterday captured the color better.

I hear you, forget the color you are saying, tell us about the shave! Well, it was a humdinger (which is probably a notch or two below the Fluffy Skippy level! I moved the Proguard back to the Hawk, and almost had a bloodletting as I was getting carried away with the smooth, effortless shave!
