Tell us about that knot!  How's it compare to a omega pro?  I love boar and this one looks fantastic.
Sorry for taking a while to get back to you. The unbleached Oumo boar is probably still breaking in, but even from the first shave, there was never any roughness (“scritch”) to it. As you may see, the tips of the bristles are breaking and curving nicely.

The knot has seen about half a dozen uses. I've tried a couple of different lofts, starting at 70 mm. Even at 66 mm, with the relatively long T-400 handle, it feels like I'm wielding a fair-sized paint brush. Very different from anything else that I have at the moment, but I do quite like the combination.

If you're into boar and don't mind the long bristles, I think this knot would be a good choice. It's been a while since I used my Omega 10049, but from memory I'd say that the bristles in that knot are a little thicker than the ones in the Oumo.

Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”
