herbert7890 what's the loft size on your brush? And I agree with your assessment. And even though I have a ZT2 I feel the same way.

Mine is a 28mm but in reality it feels over 30mms (compared to my other 28mms)

This is my only problem with my ZT2 28mm, feels like bigger than my 30mm brushes. 
Would like to get 24mm ZT3 for my next order.


It does run a size larger (like clothing brands, hehe) than the rest of the knots of the same size. But i quite like the immense feel on the face!

So, I have a few Declaration left in my collection that I will not sell, B3,B4 and a B6. I also have 10 brushes with hand tied Rhodium Knots in them with another 4 being shipped back from Australia late this week or early next week. I have tried a ton of high end knots and have not found any that can compare to Srdjan’s knots at Rhodium. How do the new ZT3 knots compare to Rhodium knots if anyone has one?
Also, Brett makes amazing handles and I used to own 5-6. I still own 4 but have only tried one of his ZT2 knots that a friend has. It’s a great knot so I am planning to send a new Leo Frilot brush handle to him to do
a ZT3 in it once I get it. I will always support
Brett’s work because he is a great guy and a very talented artisan!

Haha, so how about your first shave impressions of the ZT3?

My first use with ZT3 pretty much opened the "heavens" for me.   INCREDIBLE face-feel when doing a face lather.  I have heard multiple times about the "wall of badger" effect that people at times spoke about but I had never experienced it until my first use with ZT3 knot.  Feels like the softest of pillows is rubbing your face like a single 3-inch hair is over your face vs 25K individual badger hairs.  In a nutshell, is just the most luxurious feeling knot I have experienced on my face.

Tips seem a bit white/bleached and seem this will turn to a gelly knot (not as gelly as my latest paladin which dries like a rock, but about 5/10 in gel potential)

Backbone is also perfect for my taste, no problem spaying while not being soft either.  

Lather releases effortlessly.

I'm trying to find a fault on this knot and to be honest, I can't.   I don't want to sound like a Hype Monster, but on just one use, this instantly climbed to my num #1 spot of all my brushes,  is that good.  

Now I want another ZT3,  I assume this hair will be VERY HIGHLY regarded in the community for sure and hope it doesnt run out of ZT3 too soon.

Man, I should have listened to my FOMO. He has an impromptu mini drop the week before last and Happen to be on Instagram. Whoever got the blue handle with flecks of rainbow colors, I’m jealous

Just shoot Brett a message on Instagram and I’m sure he’ll be glad to make you one.

My ZT3 was shipped yesterday and I can’t wait to try it.

They are absolutely amazing and the work and precision that Srdjan puts in to every knot he does is just on an entirely different level!

Great to hear that, as I will be receiving my custom Rhodium in 3-4 weeks I believe.

Could be very nice to read side by side comparison between Rhodium and Mozingo.
