I am planning to re-knot a handle I have after the first of the year. I like the handle but have found that I'm not crazy about badger, I much prefer boar and synth. I already have 2 synths and an Omega 10098 Pro Boar so i will be getting a boar knot to make a second boar.
Both of these knots are from Shave Forge so I just need some advice on which one I should get. I want something close to the 10098 which is 27x65 but the handle is already drilled for a 24mm knot which is what it has in it now.
Can any of y'all that like boars maybe tell me what you perceive as the difference in a 24mm boar and one larger?
I also face lather more than I use my scuttle. I generally only use my scuttle on cold days. I also use harder soaps (Wiiliams, etc.) and Artisan soaps (TASS which is the same consistency as Stirling poured bowls.
Thanks in advance for your help and advice.
